Die Planung epilepsiechirurgischer Eingriffe stützt sich wesentlich auf neurophysiologische Befunde, insbesondere die Lokalisation epilepsietypischer Muster. Die visuelle Interpretation der iktalen und interiktalen Elektroenzephalographie (EEG) …

The advantages of magnetoencephalography (MEG) in the field of epilepsy are numerous; just like electroencephalography (EEG), MEG is able to noninvasively measure epilepsy-specific information (i. e., the brain activity) independent of blood flow …

The primary aims of presurgical evaluation in patients with intractable epilepsy are to determine the location and the extent of the cortical area generating clinical seizures and to determine its anatomical relationship with the functionally …

Accurate estimation of the cortical source generating epileptiform discharges is important for the presurgical evaluation of patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy.
