Electrical source imaging is part of the presurgical evaluation of patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. The software packages that will be used in this study have Declaration of Conformity within the European Economic Area (CE mark) for this specific medical use. In spite of being part of the clinical standard, the evidence for the accuracy and clinical utility of these methods are derived from several smaller-scale and retrospective studies. The PROMAESIS study will provide solid evidence of the accuracy and clinical utility of automated ESI.
Conditions
Electroencephalography
Refractory Epilepsy
Brain Imaging
Surgery
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with drug resistant focal epilepsy, admitted to Epilepsy Monitoring Unit for presurgical evaluation, who are afterwards discussed at the multidisciplinary epilepsy surgery team meetings. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who did not have a seizure during the monitoring.
