Early TMS evoked potentials in epilepsy: a pilot study

Early TMS evoked potentials in epilepsy: a pilot study

Highlights • TMS-EEG is a promising technique to evaluate cortical excitability in epilepsy. • Epilepsy patients showed larger TMS evoked potentials than healthy subjects. • Studies in drug-naive patients are needed to further evaluate the clinical value of TMS-EEG.
