Ictal Scalp EEG in Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Summary: Purpose: We wished to determine the predictive significance of unilateral hippocampal atrophy and interictal spikes on localization of ictal scalp EEG changes and assess whether ictal EEG provides information that might change treatment or influence prognosis in patients with such characteristics of epilepsy.
