Functional near-infrared spectroscopy for seizure detection, localization and characterization
FY 2013-14
Summary
This project will use low energy light to investigate changes in blood volume and oxygenation occurring in the head during
epileptic seizures. Changes in light intensity will inform on neuronal activity and energy consumption and help detect as well as characterize
epileptic seizures with respect to their location and energy consumption.
