The Wada test in Austrian, Dutch, German, and Swiss epilepsy centers from 2000 to 2005: a review of 1421 procedures
2008, Epilepsy and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :Overall evaluation of the Wada test is furthermore limited, as no universally accepted standardized protocol exists [9,14]. Furthermore, clinical indications differ among epilepsy centers: in some institutions the Wada test is a standard diagnostic tool, whereas in others, only selected patients undergo the procedure [9,15]. In an attempt to replace this invasive method for functional lateralization or at least to reduce the frequency of use of the Wada test, in recent years, several noninvasive tools for human brain mapping have been introduced and compared with the Wada test as the gold standard [16–24].
Intracarotid amobarbital test and fTCD in the lateralization of memory and language
2003, Handbook of Clinical NeurophysiologyCitation Excerpt :More than 50 years after the first description of the IAP, still no universally accepted, standardized protocol exists, and techniques of injection, scoring criteria, and test paradigms differ among centers (Snyder and Novelly, 1990; Rausch et al., 1993; Trenerry and Loring, 1995; Acharya and Dinner, 1997). In some institutions, all surgical candidates receive an IAP as part of the routine presurgical evaluation; in others, only certain patients undergo this procedure (Rausch et al., 1993; Jones-Gotman et al., 1997). Usually, the test is performed bilaterally.
