State of the Art Diagnostics

The Epilepsy Center’s objectives are to control your seizures and restore your quality of life. In most cases, success is achieved through an accurate diagnosis and choice of the right type and dosage of anticonvulsant medication(s). In a few carefully evaluated and selected cases, epilepsy surgery may be recommended.

For patients with medication-resistant seizures, prolonged recordings in our Epilepsy Monitoring - one dedicated to adults and another located in our Children’s Hospital — may be needed. These recordings may last several days and, thus, require hospitalization. Digital video recordings are done during these prolonged EEGs so that the data may be matched with symptoms and signs during a seizure.
