NCT ID NCT03893916

First seen Jan 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study compares two advanced brain-mapping techniques—MEG and high-resolution EEG—to see which better locates the seizure-causing area in people with drug-resistant epilepsy who are candidates for surgery. One hundred participants will undergo both scans before surgery. The goal is to improve surgical success by identifying the most precise method for guiding surgeons.
