Résumé

Surgical planning of depth electrode implantation in stereo-electro-encephalography (SEEG) routinely uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone. Accurate visualization of arteries and veins in the vicinity of the electrode is essential to plan a safe trajectory to presumably reduce the risk of intracranial bleeding. The goal of this study was to compare multidetector row computerized tomographic angiography (MDCTA) with MRI for the visualization of vessels along each planned trajectory in patients who undergo SEEG.
