Ictal high-frequency oscillations and hyperexcitability in refractory epilepsy. Issue 11 (November 2015) - Leung, Howan
Highlights High-frequency oscillations captured at the onset of seizure may help determine surgical outcome in patients with refractory epilepsy. Cortical areas demonstrating hyperexcitability may be associated with ictal high-frequency oscillations. By examining hyperexcitability and ictal high-frequency oscillations, the decision-making process for surgical resection to treat refractory epilepsy may be improved with values of sensitivity and specificity that are more optimal.
