Abstract
The mechanisms underlying generalized seizures are explored with neural field theory. A corticothalamic neural field model that has accounted for multiple brain activity phenomena and states is used to explore changes leading to pathological seizure states. It is found that absence seizures arise from instabilities in the system and replicate experimental studies in numerous animal models and clinical studies.Entities:
