Identifying the cortical substrates of interictal epileptiform activity in patients with extratemporal epilepsy: An EEG‐fMRI sequential analysis and FDG‐PET study

The aim of this study was to apply sequential analysis of electroencephalography–functional magnetic resonance imaging (EEG‐fMRI) data to study the cortical substrates related to the generation of the interictal epileptiform activity (IEA) in patients with pharmacoresistant extratemporal epilepsy.
