Do Interictal Epileptiform Discharges and Brain Responses to Electrical Stimulation Come from the Same Location? An Advanced Source Localization Solution

Do Interictal Epileptiform Discharges and Brain Responses to Electrical Stimulation Come from the Same Location? An Advanced Source Localization Solution

Do Interictal Epileptiform Discharges and Brain Responses to Electrical Stimulation Come from the Same Location? An Advanced Source Localization Solution 789 444 IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME)
This is the first study to demonstrate that delayed responses to electrical stimulation and interictal epileptiform discharges originate from the same location in the brain. It uses an adaptive Bayesian beamformer that is sensitive to target morphology and robust to possible temporal delay mismatches. read more
