Objective: To evaluate the sensitivity of a simultaneous MEG and EEG recording to detect interictal epileptiform activity (IED) in a prospective, consecutive cohort of patients with medically refractory epilepsy who were considered candidates for epilepsy surgery. Methods: Seventy patients were prospectively evaluated by simultaneously recorded whole-head 306- channel MEG and 70-channel EEG in a 2 hour session. All patients were surgical candidates or were considered for an invasive EEG monitoring and had undergone an extensive presurgical evaluation at a tertiary epilepsy center. MEG and EEG raw signals were an…
