“…One of the shortcomings of EEG is its low spatial resolution, because scalp electrodes are insufficiently sensitive to deep patterns of activity. This greatly limits its role in epileptic focus localization [1,2] . Positron emission tomography (PET) [3] has been used to evaluate the local glucose metabolism and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) [4] to assess the perfusion of epileptogenic foci, but they both use radioactivity and do not provide dynamic signal changes.…”

“…Foram selecionados 42 artigos sobre diabetes e utilizados sete na elaboração dessa parte do ensaio [19][20][21][22][23][24][25] . Para epilepsia, foram selecionados 35 artigos e utilizados onze [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] . Devido à limitação de tamanho permitido na publicação deste ensaio, foram utilizados os artigos mais recentes ou representativos de sociedades.…”

“…Basically intracranial EEG provides several advantages over scalp EEG (Salanova et al, 1993), however the disadvantages are accompanied by significant discomfort and risk of a major complication such as haemorrhage infection are not negligible (Fisch, 2010). On the other hand, scalp EEG may be less sensitive, but it provides the best overview for detecting the localization of the epileptogenic zone (Noachtar and Rémi, 2009).…”
