Abstract:
By means of brain connectomics, structural patterns of the brain nerve cells can be abstracted into a highly complex network, and epilepsy is one of the most common disorders of brain network. Although focal epilepsy (FE) is once thought to be a focal brain disease, current researches have confirmed that extensive changes exist in the FE brain network. With the development of brain connectomics in the field of epilepsy, the brain network characteristics of FE are gradually characterized. In this paper, the recent advance in human brain connectomics of FE is reviewed to summarize the characteristics of FE brain network.
