Abstract excerpt
In the last few years, with the advent of next generation sequencing (NGS), our knowledge of genes associated with monogenic epilepsies has significantly improved. NGS is also a powerful diagnostic tool for patients with epilepsy, through gene panels, exomes and genomes. This has improved diagnostic yield, reducing the time between the first seizure and a definitive molecular diagnosis. However, these...
