Abstract: | The authors have used radio-telemetry to perform long duration studies and to study the variations in cerebral electrical activity. They presented a quantitative study of the distribution of paroxysmal activity in the epileptic, based on an experimental observation and confirmed as a result of the methods used. They were able to show a relationship between the severity and temporal distribution of paroxysmal activity which was confirmed statistically. Further observations were made on the distribution and onset of epileptic discharges but more detailed analysis is required before general electrophysiological conclusions can be made. |
