Using Micro-filaments to Detect "fast Ripples" and Improve the Identification of the Epileptogenic Zone
Recruiting now NCT05254730
Run by Adrien Peyrache · for All ages · All sexes
What this study is about
record fast ripples with novel intracranial electrodes with micro-tetrodes to improve the identification of epileptogenic zone (EZ) and investigate the neuronal circuits underlying brain dynamics associated with epilepsy
