We used the recently developed method of combined intracranial EEG and fMRI (icEEG-fMRI) in a patient with epilepsy who had a focal electrographic seizure during scanning. We used an expert visually coded model and a quantitative model of spectral dynamics during the seizure obtained by frequency transformation followed by convolution by a haemodynamic response function and principle component analysis (PCA). Both models gave a similar widespread network of changes including in the right temporal lobe where the seizure onset was recorded. The quantitative model had greater statistical power and included a cluster proximal to the electrode that recorded seizure onset.
