Abstract:
:The intracarotid amobarbital test (IAT) is used to lateralize language function and assess hemispheric memory. In this study 23 non-lesional epileptic patients were evaluated. The magnitude of the difference in IAT scores between the two hemispheres was significantly greater in the patients whose seizures lateralized on scalp or intracranial EEG than in patients with bihemispheric seizure onset. This suggests that the IAT is useful not only in predicting lateralized seizure focus, but bihemispheric onset as well.
