Currently scalp EEG and ECoG are the mainstay. However, like presurgical workup in epilepsy, SEEG provides a network analysis not only including the superficial structures but also the deep structures. It also provides a spatial and temporal appreciation of the electrical signals. Most importantly, it has a lower hemorrhagic or infective complication rates as compared with craniotomy. It probably leads to fewer gliosis as compared with subdural grid and provides better longevity. When the technology improves, the diameter of the electrodes as well as the intervals between electrodes become smaller [25]. The in vivo implantation could likely be successful as what functional neurosurgeons had been doing in deep brain stimulation.
