This study presents a method to remove MRI artifacts from electroencephalography (EEG) signals, enabling continuous correlation of EEG and MRI data for epilepsy research without compromising EEG quality.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Medical Imaging
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Simultaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is valuable for epilepsy research.
  • EEG signals are often corrupted by artifacts during fMRI acquisition, limiting continuous data correlation.
  • Existing methods often require reducing fMRI acquisition time to minimize interference.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate MRI sequence-induced artifacts in EEG signals.
  • To develop and validate a method for artifact removal in simultaneously recorded EEG-fMRI data.
  • To enable reliable EEG analysis during fMRI without compromising data quality or imaging time.

Main Methods:

  • Investigated MRI artifacts in EEG from five healthy subjects during echo-planar imaging.

  • Recorded EEG from five epilepsy patients with epileptic discharges during fMRI.
  • Developed an automated artifact detection method by comparing frequency spectra before and during imaging.
  • Applied time-domain filters or Fourier transform for artifact elimination.

    • Main Results:

    • Identified discrete interfering frequencies in EEG caused by MRI sequences, linked to specific loop structures.
    • Successfully detected and eliminated interfering frequencies automatically.
    • Achieved reliable epileptic spike detection in EEG recorded during fMRI acquisition.
    • Demonstrated artifact removal without loss of overall EEG signal quality.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed post-processing method effectively removes MRI artifacts from EEG signals.
    • Continuous, high-quality EEG-fMRI correlation is feasible for epilepsy research.
    • This technique enhances the utility of simultaneous EEG-fMRI for understanding focal epilepsy.
