Brain diffusion tensor imaging reveals altered connections and networks in epilepsy patients

Abstract: IntroductionAccumulating evidence shows that epilepsy is a disease caused by brain network dysfunction. This study explored changes in brain network structure in epilepsy patients based on graph analysis of diffusion tensor imaging data.MethodsThe brain structure networks of 42 healthy control individuals and 26 epilepsy patients were constructed. Using graph theory analysis, global and local network topology parameters of the brain structure network were calculated, and changes in global and local characteris… Show more

“…Notably, individuals with epilepsy demonstrated diminished global and local brain network properties through diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) analysis. And the white matter fiber connectivity in crucial brain regions was also reduced ( Wang et al, 2023 ). Furthermore, evidence suggests that thyroid disorder has an impact on global brain connectivity.…”
