Imaging slow brain activity during neocortical and hippocampal epileptiform events with electrical impedance tomography.

These findings suggest that the slow impedance response presents a reliable marker of hypersynchronous neuronal activity during epileptic seizures and can thus be utilised for investigating the mechanisms of epileptogenesis in vivo and for aiding localisation of the epileptogenic zone during presurgical evaluation of patients with refractory epilepsies.
