The use of Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has rapidly increased over the last decade and there is growing interest in this method of intracranial EEG monitoring. This webinar will review the basic principles of formulating a hypothesis for SEEG. The importance of analyzing seizure semiology will be highlighted. The use of cortical stimulation, and the interpretation of SEEG will be discussed.
