Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Epilepsia 49:1941-5. 2008..Our findings provide evidence that status epilepticus can induce permanent hippocampal damage with the delayed timing of the structural changes being consistent with programmed cell death... - Mapping anatomical connectivity patterns of human cerebral cortex using in vivo diffusion tensor imaging tractographyGaolang Gong
Department of Biomedical Engineering, 1098 Research Transition Facility, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Cereb Cortex 19:524-36. 2009..Our results are compatible with previous structural and functional brain networks studies and provide insight into the organizational principles of human brain anatomical networks that underlie functional states... - Diffusion tensor imaging of time-dependent axonal and myelin degradation after corpus callosotomy in epilepsy patientsLuis Concha

Department of Biomedical Engineering University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 26:2267-74. 2005..Diffusion measurements throughout the limbic connections were consistent in healthy volunteers.

Comprehensive Epilepsy Program, University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Pediatr Neurol 44:117-21. 2011..Overall, no significant change occurred in neuropsychologic parameters examined after surgery. Epilepsy surgery in childhood offers excellent surgical outcomes for seizure control, and does not adversely affect intelligence quotient... - Refractory status epilepticus during pregnancy secondary to cavernous angiomaYasser Aladdin
Department of Medicine, Division of Neurology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada
Epilepsia 49:1627-9. 2008..The dramatic response of the seizures to termination of the pregnancy suggests that hormonal factors were primarily responsible for the precipitous presentation in this patient...
