Intracranial stimulation includes both deep brain stimulation (DBS) (stimulation thro...
When surgical intervention is not indicated or where surgery did not provide relief, deep brain stimulation (DBS) is one alternative treatment for refractory epilepsy. Other well studied interventions include ketogenic diet [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], vagal nerve stimulation [15], [16],...
