fMRI of Active DBS Stimulation in Epilepsy
fMRI of Active DBS Stimulation in Epilepsy
Researchers are trying to incorporate a process known as Functional MRI (fMRI) scanning to
 reveal a pattern in brain activity during Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), which will correlate
 to possible seizure freedom.
