Abstract
The directed transfer function (DTF) method is a multichannel analysis based on an autoregressive model that detects flow of seizure activity. This report extends the application of the DTF method to compare patterns of flow of seizures with different sites of origin. Analysis of a seizure originating from mesial temporal structures is compared with a seizure originating from lateral temporal neocortex; both complex partial seizures were recorded with intracranial electrodes that combine subdural grid arrays and depth electrodes. The DTF method has the potential to determine patterns of flow of activity, including periods when visual analysis of the intracranial ictal EEG may not allow for definitive source localization. The extension of the DTF analyses into integrated DTF (IDTF) formats is also illustrated. When activity of a relatively discrete frequency can be identified, the IDTF analysis facilitates display of patterns of flow of this selected activity.
