title: [From the analogic to the digital era: technical EEG progress for presurgical investigations of refractory partial epilepsies].
abstract: Over the past two decades, exploration of epileptic patients has benefited from technological advances in electroencephalography. Computerized equipment can simultaneously retrieve cerebral electric activity and signs of the patient's ictal activity. The computer era has improved reliability, storage and analysis of the recorded data and provides easier communication tools for multidisciplinary staff and patient case studies. Therefore, an increasing number of patients could benefit from presurgical investigations and surgical treatment.
