Abstract
In the article we consider the first results using SISCOM protocol in Russia in patients with focal epilepsy. This work is based on analysis of the latest data from foreign studies, as well as our own experience at the National Medical and Surgical Center named after N.I. Pirogov in patients with pharmacoresistant form of epilepsy. According to foreign literature, the verification of foci and the accuracy of determining their boundaries using the SISCOM protocol is more than 85%. Our small experience corresponds to the results of foreign research. The possibility of a detailed evaluation of the structure of the brain with a joint evaluation of perfusion of the brain tissue has a high predictive value for the comprehensive examination of patients with epilepsy and pre-surgical planing.
Keywords: focal epilepsy, EEG, PET, SPECT, MRI, SISCOM.
