Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Positive predictive value of the TMS evoked seizures for successfully localizing the epileptogenic zone.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Congruency of the TMS evoked epileptiform abnormalities with the epileptogenic zone as determined in positive surgical outcome cases: - Epileptiform afterdischarges - TMS-EEG excitability parameters Other parameters: - Type, depth and extension of lesion - Pathological assessment of lesion - Type of epilepsy, clinical semiology of seizures - Result of the pre-surgical evaluation - Post-surgical outcome
