Summary
This study looked at whether adding a combined EEG-fMRI scan to standard tests helps doctors find the exact brain area causing seizures in people with hard-to-treat focal epilepsy. About 102 patients aged 8 and older who were being considered for surgery took part. The goal was to see if this extra scan improves surgery success and helps more people become eligible for surgery.
