Automatic recognition of epileptic seizures in the EEG

TL;DR: A method for the automatic detection of seizures in the EEG, independently of the presence of clinical signs, based on the decomposition of the EEG into elementary waves and the detection of paroxysmal bursts of rhythmic activity having a frequency between 3 and 20 c/sec.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-frequency electroencephalographic oscillations correlate with outcome of epilepsy surgery.

TL;DR: This work investigated whether HFOs can delineate epileptogenic areas even outside the SOZ by correlating the resection of HFO‐generating areas with surgical outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generalized epileptic discharges show thalamocortical activation and suspension of the default state of the brain

TL;DR: Activations in thalamus and midfrontal regions confirm known involvement of these regions in the generation or spread of generalized epileptic discharges and suggest a brief lapse of responsiveness observed in patients during spike-and-wave discharges may result only from the epileptic discharge but also from its effect on normal brain function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interictal high-frequency oscillations (80–500 Hz) are an indicator of seizure onset areas independent of spikes in the human epileptic brain

TL;DR: High‐frequency oscillations known as ripples and fast ripples can be recorded from macroelectrodes inserted in patients with intractable focal epilepsy and are most likely linked to epileptogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-related changes in neural systems underlying attention and arousal during the performance of an auditory vigilance task

TL;DR: It is suggested that the observed time-related changes in reaction time, EEG activity, and blood flow in the temporalis muscles are related to changes in the level of arousal (alertness) and that CBFChanges in the thalamus-related neural circuitry represent a brain correlate of such changes.
