I hope that you found the answer to the question, one year later.... Anyway, in the above case, the PDR is not alpha due to the suspected use of medication. Posterior beta activity can also be found in a small % of the normal population.
This video had been such a benefit and I hope that you make many more videos. You articulate the information in such a way for anyone to learn and remember what was heard and apply the knowledge. I see that it has been over a year since you've posted videos. I hope you make more soon. I as an educator I am always looking for someone to learn from and grow. Thank you.
Thank you so much; I'm so glad that you enjoyed it! Over the past year I have been focusing more on my Twitter EEG cases (@RebeccaFasanoMD - I am almost to 200 cases) than making videos, but maybe I'll make some more if people are interested! :)
The (L) temporal epileptiform activity would also be correlative to the patient's episodes of aphasia couldn't it? The cortical irritability could be disruptive to the Broca's or Wernicke's area(s) resulting in expressive or receptive aphasia :)
