We used a chronic tetanus toxin rat model of interictal spiking as a platform to investigate longitudinal metabolite changes associated with epileptogensis. Our 1H MRS performed in vivo at 7T provides the opportunity to examine neocortical metabolite changes associated with the epileptogenic process in context of concurrent long term EEG changes. The goal of this study is to identify key noninvasive biomarkers associated with epileptogensis in the neocortex and characterize the potential interplays between metabolite and electrophysiologic changes during epilepsy development.
