    • Human seizures self-terminate across spatial scales via a critical transition 

      Kramer, M. A.; Truccolo, W.; Eden, U. T.; Lepage, K. Q.; Hochberg, Leigh Robert; Eskandar, Emad; Madsen, Joseph Russell; Lee, Jong Woo; Maheshwari, A.; Halgren, E.; Chu, Catherine Jean; Cash, Sydney S. (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012)
      Why seizures spontaneously terminate remains an unanswered fundamental question of epileptology. Here we present evidence that seizures self-terminate via a discontinuous critical transition or bifurcation. We show that ...

    • Morphological Characteristics of Brain Tumors Causing Seizures 

      Lee, Jong Woo; Wen, Patrick Yung Chih; Hurwitz, Shelley; Black, Peter McLaren; Kesari, Santosh; Drappatz, Jan; Golby, Alexandra Jacqueline; Wells, William Mercer; Warfield, Simon Keith; Kikinis, Ron; Bromfield, Edward B. (American Medical Association (AMA), 2010)

    • Outcomes after discontinuation of antiepileptic drugs after surgery in patients with low grade brain tumors and meningiomas 

      Das, Rohit R.; Artsy, Elinor; Hurwitz, Shelley; Wen, Patrick Yung Chih; Black, Peter McLaren; Golby, Alexandra Jacqueline; Dworetzky, Barbara Ann; Lee, Jong Woo (Springer Nature, 2012)
      Low grade tumors are associated with a high risk of seizures. Prolonged use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is associated with morbidity. Determining which patients can safely discontinue AEDs perioperatively is difficult. ...

    • Status epilepticus caused by cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation 

      Tolchin, Benjamin; Fantaneanu, Tadeau; Miller, Michael; Helgager, Jeffrey; Lee, Jong Woo (Elsevier, 2016)
      This report discusses a case of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, caused by cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation. Brain biopsy demonstrated cerebral amyloid angiopathy, with clinical and radiographic features ...
