Résumé

The purpose of presurgical assessment is to delimit the epileptogenic zone and the functional deficit zone with a brain MRI, an electroencephalograph or even a stereo-electroencephalograph (SEEG), neuropsychological evaluation, and a cerebral FDG PET. Several studies concur that the hypometabolism of FDG PET seems to be consistent with epileptogenic zones. We compared the functional deficit zone defined by FDG PET with the results of the SEEG, for each cluster electrode contact (CEC) located in the gray matter.
