Topographic movie of intracranial ictal high‐frequency oscillations with seizure semiology: Epileptic network in Jacksonian seizures

Purpose:  We developed a technique to produce images of dynamic changes in ictal high‐frequency oscillations (HFOs) >40 Hz recorded on subdural electroencephalography (EEG) that are time‐locked to the ictal EEG and ictal semiology video. We applied this technique to Jacksonian seizures to demonstrate ictal HFO propagation along the homunculus in the primary sensory‐motor cortex to visualize the underlying epileptic network.
