Improved diagnosis in children with partial epilepsy using a multivariable prediction model based on EEG network characteristics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: Electroencephalogram (EEG) acquisition is routinely performed to support an epileptic origin of paroxysmal events in patients referred with a possible diagnosis of epilepsy. However, in children with partial epilepsies the interictal EEGs are

PET Scanning in Partial Epilepsy [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1991 ABSTRACT:Many biologically active tracers are available for positron emission tomography (PET) investigations, but most studies of epilepsy have utilized l8F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to measure local cerebral metabolic rate for glucose. Over 70% of patients with medically refractory partial seizures demonstrate an interictal zone of hypometabolism ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution of metastatic salivary gland cancer were evaluated in two patients with adenoid carcinoma and one patient with myoepithelial carcinoma. Radiology‐guided autopsy enabled multi‐region sampling (total samples n = 149), followed by whole‐genome sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction (17 tumour samples, 4–7 per ...
