Abstract
<p class="first" id="d2406896e132">Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has experienced
a recent growth in adoption for
epileptogenic zone (EZ) localization. Advances in robotics have the potential to improve
the efficiency and safety of this intracranial seizure monitoring method. We present
our institutional experience employing robot-assisted SEEG and compare its operative
efficiency, seizure reduction outcomes, and direct hospital costs with SEEG performed
without robotic assistance using navigated stereotaxy.
