Thalamic Volume Asymmetry as a Potential Predictor of Vagus Nerve Stimulation Outcomes in Refractory Epilepsy

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica
Vagus nerve stimulation is an established treatment for refractory epilepsy, but predictors of treatment response remain unclear. Given that left-sided vagus nerve stimulation preferentially modulates the left thalamus and that epileptic networks induce ...
