Brain Imaging

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...

Hemispherectomy is a crucial treatment for severe pediatric epilepsy refractory to medication.
Anatomic distortion in young patients with conditions like Otoharra syndrome and hemimegencephaly complicates surgical disconnection.
Intraoperative navigation alone can be insufficient for complete hemispheric disconnection in complex pediatric cases.
