SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Traditional brain-network analyses struggle to establish directionality and causality. Cortico-cortical evoked potentials (CCEP) provide direct, high-resolution measurements to infer directional connectivity from intracranial data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CCEP-driven causal connectivity mapping across cortical regions.
  • Early and late component analysis (N1, N2) to infer pathways.
  • Applications in language, motor, visual and default mode networks; epilepsy localization and brain plasticity studies.
  • Real-world example: localize epileptogenic zones and monitor plastic changes after intervention.

Quick Start

Apply iEEG-recorded CCEP stimulation to a patient dataset to construct a directional brain network and identify causal connections.

FAQPage Schema
How do I map causal brain networks from intracranial EEG data?

You can map causal brain networks from intracranial EEG by applying cortico-cortical evoked potentials (CCEP) stimulation protocols to construct directional connectivity across cortical regions. This method directly infers causality from high-resolution measurements.

What is the difference between early and late CCEP components in brain connectivity analysis?

Early and late CCEP components (N1, N2) differentiate causal brain connectivity pathways by analyzing latency and amplitude. N1 typically reflects short-range physiological connections, while N2 indicates long-range cortico-cortical network pathways.

Can I use CCEP analysis to localize epileptogenic zones in epilepsy patients?

Yes, CCEP analysis localizes epileptogenic zones in epilepsy patients by using intracranial EEG data to map functional connections and identify causal brain networks. It also monitors plastic changes following surgical or therapeutic interventions.

Does directional brain network mapping require specific stimulation and recording protocols?

Yes, constructing causal brain networks requires specific CCEP stimulation and recording protocols from intracranial EEG data. The process also requires rigorous artifact rejection and latency analysis to accurately infer network directionality.

How do I analyze cortico-cortical evoked potentials to study brain plasticity?

You analyze cortico-cortical evoked potentials to study brain plasticity by tracking changes in directional connectivity and network construction over time. This involves comparing CCEP latency and amplitude measurements before and after patient interventions.
