A recent study led by Alice Lam, MD, PhD, also of the MGH Epilepsy Service and lead
author of the current study demonstrated a novel tool for detecting hippocampal seizures not detectible by scalp EEGs in patients with epilepsy, Cole adds, and his team is working to refine this tool and apply it to Alzheimer's disease.
While the
study relied on self - reported data, previous research has
demonstrated reliability and accuracy
of this kind
of data in reflecting
current health status, according to the
authors.
