EEG Ictal Power Dynamics, Function-Structure Associations, and Epilepsy Surgical Outcomes

Postoperative seizure control in drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) remains variable, and the causes for this variability are not well understood. One contributing factor could be the extensive spread of synchronized ictal activity across networks. Our study used novel quantifiable assessments from intracranial EEG (iEEG) to test this hypothesis and investigated how the spread of seizures is determined by underlying structural network topological properties.
