title: Cortical spike wave discharges during audiogenic convulsions in rats.
abstract: Audiogenic seizure-susceptible rats show high-amplitude spikes and waves in the electrocorticogram during the tonic phase of a maximal audiogenic convulsion. This observation establishes the validity of this seizure type as an animal model for human generalized epilepsy.
