Abstract:Objective: We present a semi-automated method for quantifying structural changes after epilepsy surgery that accounts for tissue deformation caused by resection. We demonstrate its utility by comparing the remote structural effects of two surgical approaches, the anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) and the selective amygdalohippocampectomy (SAH).
Methods: We studied 37 temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) patients who underwent resective surgery. Patients were treated with either an anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL, N=… Show more
