The abnormalities are seen in the frontal lobe (F8), Temporal, (T4) CentroTemporal (C4) ......Sounds like it shows the locations for the spikes they saw, but no seizures during the time you were in.

Sleep spindles and the Vertex waves are normal for his age, we have been told.

I am not sure about the alpha amplatude but the Theta slowing might be normal drowsiness since the report did not report that as abnormal for him.....


He did not seem to have any problems with the Photic stimulations or hyperventilation, so that is good.

[q]Impressions
During this study, the baseline EEG was abnormal because of the presence of an active focus of epileptiform activity in the centrotemporal head region (C4, T4) with a wide field of distributions spreading to involve the ipsilateral anterior temporal head region (F8) as well. These findings place this patient at risk for focal and secondarily generalized seizures.[/q]

I guess the most important part is that the impression is that he is still at risk for Seizures that are partial and secondary generalized.

The abnormality is all on the right side in the frontal, and temporal region.

Does this help?
