Epilepsia® – A Journal of the ILAE
Epilepsia® is the world's leading journal of original scientific research and commentary in epileptology. Impact Factor: 6.6. Epilepsia® publishes original articles on all aspects of epilepsy, clinical and experimental. T
We observed an increased PVS volume fraction in the basal ganglia across all epilepsy types considered.
