AI outperforms human eye in spotting epileptic behavior in mice

AI outperforms human eye in spotting epileptic behavior in mice

The advent of high-resolution imaging has provided healthcare providers and scientists with a greater understanding of the brain circuit malfunctions seen in epileptics, but less is known about how epilepsy affects behavior. A new study has used state-of-the-art AI on mice to catch epilepsy-related behavior that can be missed by the human eye. Epilepsy is the […]

Neurologists caution against warning signs of epilepsy due to low awareness levels

Neurologists caution against warning signs of epilepsy due to low awareness levels

Mumbai-based neurologists have cautioned against warning signs of epilepsy due to low awareness levels. Epilepsy impacts the brain leading to frequent seizures. It is seen in a large number of people and many cases go unreported. Epilepsy is a brain disease that causes abnormal hyperexcitability of brain cells leading to seizures. It is the need […]

METHOD HELPS FINDS SOURCE OF EPILEPSY SEIZURES BEFORE THEY BEGIN

METHOD HELPS FINDS SOURCE OF EPILEPSY SEIZURES BEFORE THEY BEGIN

Using low frequencies to determine causal flow could help locate an epilepsy seizure long before it occurs. “The method can potentially open up a whole new possibility of localizing seizures with a… non-invasive approach,” says Mukesh Dhamala. “That’s the idea.” A measure of brain activity known as causal flow can help locate the source of […]

Study on “revolutionary” EEG tech launched

Study on “revolutionary” EEG tech launched

A new study into “game-changing” long-term seizure-monitoring technology has launched today. The Real World Testing and Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Subcutaneous EEG (REAL-ASE) will recruit 33 people with drug-resistant epilepsy in centers in London, Newcastle, Cardiff and Manchester, to trial the small EEG device for six months. Drug-resistance is when two or more epilepsy medicines have not […]
