Electrical stimulation guidelines for SEEG and SDE by an international expert panel which will hopefully help with some clinical controversies during Phase II evaluations.
Issue 42.3 includes a fascinating guide from Arya et al to electrical stimulation with intracranial electrodes, with implications for brain mapping and seizure induction. Read more here: bit.ly/42cG2bD
