Localization-related epilepsies encompass a diverse spectrum of epileptic conditions characterized by focal onset seizures originating from specific brain regions identifiable through EEG. Distinct clinical features and EEG patterns often allow for precise localization of the epileptogenic zone. Seizures may arise from various cortical areas, including the temporal, frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes, each exhibiting unique electroclinical manifestations. Understanding the interplay between seizure semiology and EEG findings is crucial for accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment strategies in patients with localization-related epilepsies.Participation in this course offers clinicians a comprehensive understanding of localization-related epilepsy on EEG, providing valuable insights into using EEG for diagnosing and localizing these conditions. Clinicians enhance their proficiency in interpreting EEG findings and identifying seizure foci. Additionally, participants gain practical skills in utilizing advanced EEG techniques and neuroimaging modalities to optimize patient care and improve outcomes. This course equips clinicians with the knowledge and tools necessary to confidently diagnose localization-related epilepsies using EEG, ultimately enhancing the quality of care provided to patients with these complex neurological disorders. Further, this activiy underscores the importance of collaborating and communicating with the interprofessional healthcare team to provide best patient outcomes.
