Preoperative MEG reveals differential brain network characteristics in drug-resistant epilepsy patients based on vagus nerve stimulation response

Preoperative brain network patterns derived from multi-frequency MEG, particularly in alpha and beta bands, hold promise for predicting VNS treatment response in DRE patients. The "health status" of the brain's network prior to implantation appears to be a crucial factor influencing therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract

Preoperative brain network patterns derived from multi-frequency MEG, particularly in alpha and beta bands, hold promise for predicting VNS treatment response in DRE patients. The "health status" of the brain's network prior to implantation appears to be a crucial factor influencing therapeutic efficacy.
