Abnormal Cortical Activation During Planning of Voluntary Movement in Patients with Epilepsy with Focal Motor Seizures: Event‐Related Desynchronization Study of Electroencephalographic mu Rhythm

Summary: Purpose: The spatiotemporal distribution of EEG mu rhythm desynchronization was analyzed in patients with partial epilepsy to determine whether frequent focal motor seizures could induce a change of cortical activation during the planning of a voluntary movement.
