The presence of depth electrodes minimally perturbs intracranial electric potentials, with negligible impact on source localization. However, brain tissue heterogeneity and anisotropy significantly affect measurements, necessitating their consideration in stereo-EEG analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computational Electrophysiology

Background:

  • Stereo-EEG (sEEG) is crucial for epilepsy localization.
  • Accurate source localization requires precise modeling of electric potential distribution.
  • Understanding electrode and brain tissue effects is vital for sEEG accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Quantify electrode perturbation on intracranial electric potentials.
  • Assess the impact of brain tissue heterogeneity and anisotropy on these potentials.
  • Improve models for sEEG forward and inverse problems.

Main Methods:

  • Boundary Elements Method (BEM) for electrode perturbation.
  • Finite Elements Method (FEM) for heterogeneous anisotropic brain models.

  • Simulation of electric potential distribution and source localization.

    • Main Results:

    • Electrode perturbation is negligible beyond 1mm from the source.
    • Errors in source position estimation due to electrode perturbation are below 1mm.
    • Brain heterogeneity and anisotropy cause significant localization differences (up to 5mm).

    Conclusions:

    • Detailed electrode models are unnecessary for sEEG forward/inverse problems.
    • Modeling brain tissue heterogeneity and anisotropy is recommended.
    • Homogeneous isotropic models require case-by-case evaluation for sEEG accuracy.
