Popis: | The Wada test is commonly used to evaluate language and memory lateralization in candidates for epilepsy surgery. The spatial Brain Symmetry Index (BSI) quantifies inter-hemispheric differences in the EEG. Its application has been shown to be feasible during Wada testing. We developed a method for the quantification of EEG asymmetry that matches visual assessments of the EEG better than BSI. Fifty-three patients' EEG data, with a total of 85 injections were analyzed. In a step-wise, data-driven manner, multiple electrode and frequency band combinations were evaluated. Eventually, BSI, calculated using only the frontal electrodes F 3 and F 4 , was combined with a temporal measure of delta power in the central electrodes, C 3 and C 4 , into a new measure: cBSI. Using the area under the ROC curve (AUC), we showed that cBSI performs significantly better relative to BSI (median AUC 0.98 versus 0.96, p = 0.0015, Wilcoxon signed rank test). Our results showed that asymmetry detection was significantly improved by combining temporal with spatial qEEG measures. In the future, our combined qEEG measure could allow for a more objective way of monitoring EEG asymmetry, thereby increasing the feasibility of using EEG as a monitoring tool during the Wada test. Future studies should, however, validate our cBSI method in real time in the operating room or radiology suite. |
