Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) alters functional networks in brain. Dynamic Causal Modeling suggests that these alternations are directional.
Regions in Large-Scale Brain networks
Significant difference in effective connectivity between each pair of normal, left TLE, and right TLE groups in each network. Black lines indicate mean of the normal group, red lines indicated the mean of the left TLE groups and blue lines indicate the mean of the right TLE groups.
