Summary: MEG provides valuable nonredundant information in presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery, significantly influencing the surgical strategy. Patients who underwent surgical resection in sublobes concordant with MSI localization had a good outcome rate of 76% in long-term follow-up, indicating a high accuracy of MSI localization.

Summary: Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a neurophysiological test used for functional localization of epileptic sources in patients considered for epilepsy surgery. Understanding and interpreting clinical MEG concepts involves complex processes requiring clinical and procedural expertise. This review aims to explain basic practical concepts of clinical MEG relevant to epilepsy, with a focus on single equivalent dipole (sECD) as a widely used source localization method.

Summary: Patients with Alzheimer's disease with subclinical epileptiform activity show altered neuronal synchrony, which can be accurately quantified using resting-state magnetoencephalography. These quantitative neurophysiological measures can serve as biomarkers to improve diagnosis and select appropriate patients for therapy.

Summary: This study investigates the cost and effort involved in integrating the interictal EEG source localization (ESL) into clinical practice of an epilepsy center and examines the concordance of results obtained from three different ESL pipelines. The study also reveals the current role of ESL in presurgical evaluation among epilepsy centers in Germany. The results show that integrating ESL requires significant time and effort and there is low agreement among different ESL pipelines, highlighting the need for further standardization.

Summary: MEG can serve as a biomarker for predicting the surgical outcome in pediatric epilepsy. Cluster removal and regular cluster organization have predictive power in postsurgical prognostication in children, while the presence of scatters predicts poor outcome in children with focal cortical dysplasia.

Summary: This study demonstrates that modulation of intrinsic properties can lead to switching a neuron into dual-frequency oscillations, rather than relying solely on synaptic modulation. This switching process enables a neuron to become an active contributor to rhythm generation in the second network.

Summary: An automatic sECD algorithm (AsECDa) for language mapping was developed and evaluated. Results showed that AsECDa outperformed other common source localization methods in terms of localization accuracy and test-retest reliability. AsECDa identified 38% of patients with atypical language lateralization.

Summary: The study found that patients who did not undergo surgery exhibited higher baseline psychiatric symptoms, and age and levels of anxiety were significant predictors of undergoing surgery or not.

Summary: This study analyzes the characteristics of current imaging techniques and literature on this topic, with the aim of finding an imaging technique that can help reduce post-surgical recurrences through pre-operative assessment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) margins. HFUS and UHFUS are considered the most promising non-invasive techniques, providing information on vascularization, deep margins, and high-risk subtypes. However, there is insufficient literature on these techniques compared to RCM and OCT, and they have certain limitations.

Summary: This study introduces a new technique to invert the interior current source based on a single circular current loop model by analyzing field geometric structure with sampled field dataset. The technique is able to separate and solve optimal loop parameters successively, demonstrating reasonability and effectiveness in applications to the International Geomagnetic Reference Field and the Swarm mission's magnetic field dataset. This technique can be reduced to fit an eccentric dipole model and is particularly useful for inversions of the geometry of interior current sources, which could be widely applied in planetary magnetism and palaeomagnestism fields.

Summary: The paper proposes a theoretical model for a single photon quantum router consisting of two waveguides and two quantum dots, which realizes the transportation and branching of photons through coupling. The results show that the coupling strength greatly affects the transmission rate, and the interaction between the quantum dots changes the spectral characteristics and routing behavior, with the position of the side branch also affecting the routing properties.

Summary: Nanofluids greatly enhance physical and thermal characteristics when interacting with a magnetic field, benefiting applications in various engineering processes. The study investigates the impact of a magnetic field due to a dipole on nanofluid flow in an enclosure. Results show that nanofluid flow is minimally affected by the magnetic field from the dipole, and nanoparticle volume fraction has subtle effects on skin friction and Nusselt number.

Summary: This study used graph theory to evaluate the effect of tDCS on the brain network of 40 Hz ASSR and found that tDCS can significantly improve the functional integration of the whole-brain network of 40 Hz ASSR. In addition, the study also found that individuals with lower initial functional integration showed a more pronounced effect after receiving tDCS.

Summary: Presurgical identification of the epileptogenic zone is crucial for seizure control after surgical resection in epilepsy. A recent study found that brain areas with increased AMPA receptors are likely to be the origin of epileptic discharges in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, providing a non-invasive option to identify the epileptogenic zone.

Summary: A prospective study was conducted on quantitative imaging applications for lateralizing epileptogenicity in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. Various neuroimaging modalities were evaluated, with multistructural analysis, multimodal model analysis, and PET showing the best predictive outcomes for surgical results. Continued exploration of combined optimal neuroimaging metrics will improve prediction models.
