A study introduces a predictive model that could expand access to surgical treatment for the neurological disorder that causes recurring seizures. Epilepsy affects, with roughly one-third not responding adequately to medications. For these patients, surgery to remove or disable the part of the brain causing seizures can be an effective treatment, but predicting which patients will emerge seizure-free has been difficult. The researchers developed their model based on data from 101 patients who...
