Zusammenfassung
Introduction: Traditional spike detection programs mark detected events in long-term EEG but lack a good overview. BESA Epilepsy uses a new hypercluster technique to combine similar events over 24 hours. On a daily basis, the physician inspects each hypercluster and decides whether it is epileptiform. Optimized source waveform and EEG segment displays, 3D maps, and localization of the events in a head scheme allow for fast decision and assessment of the likely region of origin. Material and Methods: A new spike detection and clustering algorithm based on an EEG transformation into 29 regional sources was develop…
