    Abstract This book serves as a foundation for MRI guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) across neurosurgical diseases. It provides state-of-the-art information on the latest indications and results for LITT in CNS applications, as well as prerequisite historical perspective and technical fundamentals. Written by experts in the field, the text reviews the historical development of LITT, the technical and technological components required to perform LITT, its indications and contraindications, areas that still require investigation, LITT complications, and challenges to starting up LITT within one’s practice. As early adopters of the technology, the authors provide sage advice that reflects the initial learning curves of many of the users. The book then concludes with a practical guide to starting up a LITT practice in the current medical socioeconomic environment. Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy in Neurosurgery is a guide that will allow all neurosurgeons interested in LITT to successfully adopt the technology and incorporate its use seamlessly, safely and appropriately into their individual practices.

    Abstract Significance: Intravital cellular calcium imaging has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate how different types of neurons interact at the microcircuit level to produce seizure activity, with newfound potential to understand epilepsy. Although many methods exist to measure seizure-related activity in traditional electrophysiology, few yet exist for calcium imaging.
    Aim: To demonstrate an automated algorithmic framework to detect seizure-related events using calcium imaging-including the detection of pre-ictal spike events, propagation of the seizure wavefront, and terminal spreading waves for both population-level activity and that of individual cells.
    Approach: We developed an algorithm for precise recruitment detection of population and individual cells during seizure-associated events, which broadly leverages averaged population activity and high-magnitude slope features to detect single-cell pre-ictal spike and seizure recruitment. We applied this method to data recorded using awake
    Results: We demonstrate that our detected recruitment times are concordant with visually identified labels provided by an expert reviewer and are sufficiently accurate to model the spatiotemporal progression of seizure-associated traveling waves.
    Conclusions: Our algorithm enables accurate cell recruitment detection and will serve as a useful tool for researchers investigating seizure dynamics using calcium imaging.

    Abstract Deep brain stimulation has demonstrated efficacy in reducing seizure frequency in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who may otherwise not be candidates for other surgical procedures. Recently, a clinical device that can monitor neural activity in the form of local field potentials around the deep brain stimulator lead implant site has been introduced. While this technology has been clinically adopted in other disorders treated with deep brain stimulation, such as Parkinson's disease, its application in epilepsy remains unclear. Previous research using investigational devices has suggested that specific frequency bands may correlate with clinical response to deep brain stimulation in epilepsy, but features of the clinical device may prevent its use. The authors present their experience with using this technology in epilepsy patients and describe some of its limitations. Ultimately, novel biomarkers will need to be identified to elucidate how neural activity at deep brain stimulation sites may change with clinical response.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to identify features of responsive neurostimulation (RNS) lead configuration and contact placement associated with greater seizure reduction in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE).
    Methods: A single-center series of patients with MTLE treated with RNS were retrospectively analyzed to assess the relationship between anatomical targeting and seizure reduction. Targeting was determined according to both the preoperatively conceived lead configuration and the actual placement of RNS contacts. Three lead configurations were used: 1) single bilateral, with 1 depth lead in each hippocampus; 2) single unilateral, with 1 hippocampal depth lead and another implant outside the mesial temporal lobe; and 3) dual unilateral, with 2 leads in 1 hippocampus. Contact placement on postoperative imaging was measured according to the number of hippocampal contacts per targeted hippocampus (contact density) and per patient (contact count), distribution throughout the hippocampus, and proximity to the anteromedial hippocampus.
    Results: Dual unilateral lead placement resulted in significantly higher hippocampal contact density compared with the single hippocampal approaches, but only showed a nonsignificant trend toward a higher rate of response. However, those patients with more than 4 contacts in a single hippocampus, achievable only with dual unilateral leads, had a significantly higher rate of response. The higher likelihood of response was poorly explained by more widespread hippocampal coverage, but well correlated with proximity to the anteromedial hippocampus.
    Conclusions: Dual unilateral hippocampal implantation increased RNS contact density in patients with unilateral MTLE, which contributed to improved outcomes, not by stimulating more of the hippocampus, but instead by being more likely to stimulate a latent subtarget in the anterior hippocampus. It remains to be explored whether a single electrode targeted selectively to this region would also result in improved outcomes.

    Abstract Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a rapidly growing surgical option for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who are not candidates for resective/ablative surgery. Recent randomized controlled trials have demonstrated efficacy of DBS of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT), particularly in frontal or temporal epilepsy, whereas DBS of the centromedian (CM) nucleus appears to be most suitable in well-defined generalized epilepsy syndromes. At the authors' institution, DBS candidates who did not fit the populations represented in these trials were managed with DBS of multiple distinct targets, which included ANT, CM, and less-studied nuclei-i.e., mediodorsal nucleus, pulvinar, and subthalamic nucleus. The goal of this study was to present the authors' experience with these types of cases, and to motivate future investigations that can determine the long-term efficacy of multitarget DBS.
    Methods: This single-center retrospective study of adult patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who underwent multitarget DBS was performed to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of this approach, and to present seizure outcomes. Patients in this cohort had epilepsy with features that were difficult to treat with DBS of the ANT or CM nucleus alone, including multifocal/multilobar, diffuse-onset, and/or posterior-onset seizures; or both generalized and focal seizures.
    Results: Eight patients underwent DBS of 2-3 distinct thalamic/subthalamic nuclei. DBS was performed with 2 electrodes in each hemisphere. All leads in each patient were implanted with either frontal or parietal trajectories. There were no surgical complications. Among those with > 6 months of follow-up (n = 5; range 7-21 months), all patients were responders in terms of overall seizure frequency and/or convulsive seizure frequency (i.e., ≥ 50% reduction). Two patients had adverse stimulation effects, which resolved with further programming.
    Conclusions: Multitarget DBS is a procedurally feasible and safe treatment strategy to maximize outcomes in patients with complex epilepsy. The authors highlight their approach to inform future studies that are sufficiently powered to assess its efficacy.
