Non-invasive recording of deep brain activity: mobile sensors optimized with intracerebral measures

Epilepsy presurgical evaluation consists in mapping the brain regions generating pathological activities, which can be surgically resected. The current method of choice is stereotaxic electroencephalography (SEEG), an invasive procedure which involves implanting a limited number of electrodes in the brain. Thanks to 4-He Optically Pumped Magnetometers (OPMs), a new generation of mobile sensors, I will be able to record magnetic activity non-invasively across the whole brain. Compared to classical magnetoencephalography, OPMs can be placed directly on the scalp, drastically reducing the distance to the brain and opening the way to optimise spatial sampling of magnetic fields. Thus, the…
