DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2017.06.049
Abstract: Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of anterior thalamic nuclei (ANT) reduces frequency and intensity of epileptic partial and secondarily-generalized seizures. ANT-DBS disrupts sleep in epilepsy patients. We investigated the impact of ANT-DBS on alertness in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2019.03.019
Abstract: Introduction Source localization of interictal epileptic discharges (IEDs) is clinically useful in the presurgical workup of epilepsy patients. Recently, we have demonstrated that distributed magnetic source imaging (dMSI) has better accuracy than clinically approved equivalent… read more here.
