Behavioral measures and EEG monitoring using the Brain Symmetry Index during the Wada test in children [PDF]
EEG monitoring is used routinely during the Wada test in children. We quantified EEG asymmetry using the Brain Symmetry Index (BSI) to reduce subjectivity of EEG interpretation.

The Wada test in the evaluation for epilepsy surgery
The Wada test is the standard part of the pre-operative evaluation for epilepsy surgery. The procedure involves the slow injection of sodium amobarbital (typically 100-500mg) into the internal carotid artery following a transfermoral approach. The amobarbital anesthetizes the anterior two-thirds of the ipsilateral cerebral hemisphere for approximately ...

The Wada Test: contributions to standardization of the stimulus for language and memory assessment
The Wada Test (WT) is part of the presurgical evaluation for refractory epilepsy. The WT is not standardized and the protocols differ in important ways, including stimulus type of material presented for memory testing, timing of presentations and methods

Practical steps to develop a transcriptomic test for blood doping
Blood doping remains a significant problem that threatens the integrity of sport. The current indirect method for detecting blood doping involves the longitudinal measurement of an athlete’s haematological variables and identification of suspicious ...

Left hippocampectomy in an epilepsy patient with right hemisphere language dominance
Background: The left hippocampus is believed to play an important role in memory function. Thus, left hippocampectomy should be carefully performed. However, the left hippocampus may be less important for memory in patients with right hemisphere language

The lesioned brain: still a small world?
The intra-arterial amobarbital procedure (IAP or Wada test) is used to determine language lateralization and contralateral memory functioning in patients eligible for neurosurgery because of pharmaco-resistant epilepsy.
