Human intracranial high frequency oscillations (HFOs) detected by automatic time-frequency analysis.
<h4>Objectives</h4>High frequency oscillations (HFOs) have been proposed as a new biomarker for epileptogenic tissue. The exact characteristics of clinically relevant HFOs and their detection are still to be defined.<h4>Methods</h4>We propose a new method for HFO detection, w...
