Functional Connectivity of the Anterior Nucleus of the Thalamus in Pediatric Focal Epilepsy

Functional Connectivity of the Anterior Nucleus of the Thalamus in Pediatric Focal Epilepsy

Objective: Whilst stimulation of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus has shown efficacy for reducing seizure frequency in adults, alterations in thalamic connectivity have not been explored in children. We tested the hypotheses that (a) the anterior thalamus has increased functional connectivity in...
