Could a brain implant do more than reduce seizures? Dr. Vikram Rao explains how responsive neurostimulation (RNS) is changing epilepsy treatment, who may benefit, and why researchers are so excited about its future.
Generalised epilepsy is often described as involving the whole brain at once. Dr. Frederic Schaper discusses research suggesting shared brain networks may underlie these seizures - and how those networks overlap with targets used for deep brain stimulation.
Why routine EEGs often miss seizures – and how long-term and subcutaneous EEG monitoring can change clinical understanding of seizure burden, treatment decisions, and diagnostic certainty.
