Doctors and researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC have developed a new treatment for epilepsy patients who don't respond to medication and aren't candidates for surgery. Their approach, ...

Researchers from the University of Freiburg in Germany have found that deep brain stimulation (DBS) in the brain’s temporal lobe can offset seizures from epilepsy in mouse models. Patients with ...

But long-term mortality -- which her group considered a proxy for seizure control -- became substantially worse for patients ...

ROCHESTER, Minnesota — Using deep brain stimulation techniques, neuroscientists at Mayo Clinic are looking for early signals in the brain to help stop seizures. In their biomarker discovery initiative ...

Frederic L.W.V.J. Schaper, MD, PhD, director of Epilepsy Network Mapping at the Center for Brain Circuit Therapeutics at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and an instructor of neurology at Harvard Medical ...

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed a new, personalized approach to deep brain stimulation (DBS) for people with drug-resistant epilepsy. By mapping each patient's unique brain wave patterns, the ...

NAVASOTA, Texas (KBTX) - A Navasota man diagnosed with epilepsy used to suffer from aggressive seizures, but after undergoing brain surgery, he got to press the reset button on life. Chase Griffin, 24 ...

(WYTV)- How do we stop brain seizures? Maybe we can do that with what’s called personal therapeutic brain stimulation.

What Is Deep Brain Stimulation? The procedure involves implanting electrodes within areas of the brain for people with movement conditions. "The electrodes produce electrical impulses that affect ...

In awake mice, researchers found that even low deep brain stimulation currents in the central thalamus could sometimes still cause electrographic seizures. The idea of electrically stimulating a brain ...
