Abstract
For the last two decades, high-frequency oscillations have been considered highly correlated with brain tissue epileptic activity. High frequency oscillations are usually detected from electroencephalography (EEG) signals recorded by intracranial electrodes. Recent studies have shown that high frequency oscillations can also be detected in scalp EEG. As a safe, non-invasive and simple recording method, the study of scalp EEG in detecting high frequency oscillations has attracted wide attention. In this paper, we summarize the research progress and clinical significance of high-frequency oscillations in scalp EEG in the diagnoses and treatments of epilepsy.
