Résumé

Single-pulse electrical stimulation (SPES) is an established technique used to map functional effective connectivity networks in treatment-refractory epilepsy patients undergoing intracranial-electroencephalography monitoring. While the connectivity path between stimulation and recording sites has been explored through the integration of structural connectivity, there are substantial gaps, such that new modeling approaches may advance our understanding of connectivity derived from SPES studies. Using intracranial electrophysiology data recorded from a single patient undergoing sEEG evaluation, we employ an automated detection method to identify early response components, C1, from pulse-evoked potentials (PEPs) induced by SPES. C1 components were utilized for a novel topology optimization method, modeling 3D conductivity propagation from stimulation sites. Additionally, PEP features were compared with tractography metrics, and model results were analyzed with respect to anatomical features. The proposed optimization model resolved conductivity paths with low error. Specific electrode contacts displaying high error correlated with anatomical complexities. The C1 component strongly correlates with additional PEP features and displayed stable, weak correlations with tractography measures. Existing methods for estimating conductivity propagation are imaging-based and thus rely on anatomical inferences. These results demonstrate that informing topology optimization methods with human intracranial SPES data is a feasible method for generating 3D conductivity maps linking electrical pathways with functional neural ensembles. PEP-estimated effective connectivity is correlated with but distinguished from structural connectivity. Modeled conductivity resolves connectivity pathways in the absence of anatomical priors.

Background UNASSIGNED
Single-pulse electrical stimulation (SPES) is an established technique used to map functional effective connectivity networks in treatment-refractory epilepsy patients undergoing intracranial-electroencephalography monitoring. While the connectivity path between stimulation and recording sites has been explored through the integration of structural connectivity, there are substantial gaps, such that new modeling approaches may advance our understanding of connectivity derived from SPES studies.
New Method UNASSIGNED
Using intracranial electrophysiology data recorded from a single patient undergoing sEEG evaluation, we employ an automated detection method to identify early response components, C1, from pulse-evoked potentials (PEPs) induced by SPES. C1 components were utilized for a novel topology optimization method, modeling 3D conductivity propagation from stimulation sites. Additionally, PEP features were compared with tractography metrics, and model results were analyzed with respect to anatomical features.
Results UNASSIGNED
The proposed optimization model resolved conductivity paths with low error. Specific electrode contacts displaying high error correlated with anatomical complexities. The C1 component strongly correlates with additional PEP features and displayed stable, weak correlations with tractography measures.
Comparison with existing methods UNASSIGNED
Existing methods for estimating conductivity propagation are imaging-based and thus rely on anatomical inferences.
Conclusions UNASSIGNED
These results demonstrate that informing topology optimization methods with human intracranial SPES data is a feasible method for generating 3D conductivity maps linking electrical pathways with functional neural ensembles. PEP-estimated effective connectivity is correlated with but distinguished from structural connectivity. Modeled conductivity resolves connectivity pathways in the absence of anatomical priors.
