Scalp HFO rates decrease after successful epilepsy surgery and are not impacted by the skull defect resulting from craniotomy [PDF]
Epilepsy surgery can achieve seizure freedom in selected pediatric candidates, but reliable postsurgical predictors of seizure freedom are missing. High frequency oscillations (HFO) in scalp EEG are a new and promising biomarker of treatment response ...
