Objective To study the value of interictal/ictal single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) imaging in localization of epileptic foci. Methods Interictal/ictal SPECT
EEG
VEEG
CT or MRI
and ECoG of 115 epilepsy patients
who underwent operation in Department of Neurosurgery
Xinqiao Hospital
Third Military Medical University
were retrospectively analyzed and compared. Results The positive detection rate of interictal/ictal SPECT for epilepsy was higher than that of EEG
VEEG
CT and MRI (90.4% vs 37.4%
82.6%
48.8% and 54.2%
P0.05). The localization rate of interictal/ictal SPECT for epileptic foci was higher than that of ECoG (91.3% vs 71.2%
P0.05). Conclusion The interictal/ictal SPECT is highly consistent with ECoG in localization of epileptic foci
thus playing an important role in preoperative localization of epilepsy.
