Spatial and temporal profile of high-frequency oscillations in posttraumatic epileptogenesis.

ABSTRACT: We studied the role of temporal and spatial changes in high-frequency oscillation (HFO, 80-500 Hz) generation in epileptogenesis following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Experiments were conducted on adult male Sprague Dawley rats. For the TBI group, fluid percussion injury (FPI) on the left sensorimotor area was performed to induce posttraumatic epileptogenesis. For the sham control group, only the craniotomy was performed. After TBI, 8 bipolar micro-electrodes were implanted bilaterally in the prefrontal cortex, perilesional area and homotopic contralateral site, striatum, and hippocampus. Long-term video/local field potential (LFP) recordings were performed for up to 21 weeks to identify and characterize seizures and capture HFOs. The electrode tip locations and the volume of post TBI br
