icobrain ep helps physicians with the detection of hippocampal sclerosis in patients with intractable (uncontrollable) epilepsy.

The icobrain ep software aids the assessment of hippocampal asymmetry and, therefore, aids the detection of hippocampal sclerosis, a common cause of intractable epilepsy.

icobrain ep uncovers abnormality patterns by:
Comparing hippocampal asymmetry to an age-and-sex matched normative healthy population.
Assessing the juxtacortical abnormalities (which can indicate cortical malformations).

Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE)	icobrain mr is intended for automatic labeling, visualization and volumetric quantification of segmentable brain structures from a set of MR images. This software is intended to automate the current manual process of identifying, labeling and quantifying the volume of segmentable brain structures identified on MR images. icobrain mr consists of two distinct image processing pipelines: icobrain mr cross and icobrain mr long. icobrain mr cross is intended to provide volumes from images acquired at a single timepoint. icobrain mr long is intended to provide changes in volumes between two images that were acquired on the same scanner, with the same image acquisition protocol and with same contrast at two different timepoints. The results of icobrain mr cross cannot be compared with the results of icobrain mr long.
