Time-frequency characteristics of scalp high-frequency oscillations provide complementary biomarkers in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome. [PDF]

High‐frequency oscillations (HFOs), defined as oscillatory events at >80 Hz, reflect rapid spatiotemporal dynamics of cortical activity and might serve as novel biomarkers for epilepsy.
