Using high-frequency oscillations from brief intraoperative neural recordings to predict the seizure onset zone

Abstract Background While high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) and their stereotyped clusters (sHFOs) have emerged as potential neuro-biomarkers for the rapid localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) in epilepsy, their clinical application is hindered by the challenge of automated elimination of p...

description Abstract Background While high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) and their stereotyped clusters (sHFOs) have emerged as potential neuro-biomarkers for the rapid localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) in epilepsy, their clinical application is hindered by the challenge of automated elimination of pseudo-HFOs originating from artifacts in heavily corrupted intraoperative neural recordings. This limitation has led to a reliance on semi-automated detectors, coupled with manual visual artifact rejection, impeding the translation of findings into clinical practice. Methods In response, we have developed a computational framework that integrates sparse signal processing and ensemble learning to automatically detect genuine HFOs of intracranial EEG data. This framework is utilized during intraoperative monitoring (IOM) while implanting electrodes and postoperatively in the epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU) before the respective surgery. Results Our framework demonstrates a remarkable ability to eliminate pseudo-HFOs in heavily corrupted neural data, achieving accuracy levels comparable to those obtained through expert visual inspection. It not only enhances SOZ localization accuracy of IOM to a level comparable to EMU but also successfully captures sHFO clusters within IOM recordings, exhibiting high specificity to the primary SOZ. Conclusions These findings suggest that intraoperative HFOs, when processed with computational intelligence, can be used as early feedback for SOZ tailoring surgery to guide electrode repositioning, enhancing the efficacy of the overall invasive therapy.
