Investigation of subdural electrode displacement in invasive epilepsy surgery workup using neuronavigation and intraoperative MRI.

CONCLUSION: Comparison of pre-explantation and post-implantation iopMRI scans with CT/MRI data using the volume-rendering technique resulted in an accurate placement of electrodes. In one patient with a considerable electrode dislocation, the surgical approach and extent was changed due to the detected electrode shift.
