This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial uses advanced MRI scanning techniques to create detailed maps of the brain networks causing your seizures. Researchers will scan your brain before you have a specialized procedure called SEEG implantation, which helps doctors locate exactly where your seizures start. If you later have surgery to treat your epilepsy, they will also scan your brain again three months after surgery to see how the seizure networks have changed.
Currently, doctors have limited tools to visualize the exact brain connections involved in drug-resistant epilepsy before surgery. This trial aims to develop better imaging methods to help surgeons plan more precise and effective treatments, potentially improving outcomes for people whose seizures don't respond to medication.

Before your scheduled SEEG implantation procedure, you will come for a specialized MRI scan that takes detailed pictures of your brain using different imaging techniques. If you later have surgery to remove or disconnect the part of your brain causing seizures, you will return for another identical MRI scan about three months after your surgery so doctors can compare how your brain networks have changed.
