Computed EEG topography (CET) and childhood epilepsy: two years experience.
The statistical data obtained with the use of computed EEG topography (CET) in a diagnostic study on 65 epileptic children are reported briefly. The CET technique has proved to be particularly useful in establishing the focal origin of paroxystic activity in a high percentage of cases of generalized epilepsies presumed to be primary (33%) or secondary (88%), and for localizing areas of brain function abnormality not detected by other diagnostic techniques.
