Seizures Can Be Predicted More Than 30 Minutes Before Onset in Patients With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Using EEG technology, researchers were able to detect pathological brain activity associated with seizures up to thirty minutes before a seizure occurred in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. The ability to detect seizure activity early could allow for the modulation of affected brain regions as a therapeutic option.
