Multiple Subpial Transection Index

Featured: Multiple Subpial Transection Main Article

Brain seizures can begin in critical areas of the brain. A relatively new epilepsy treatment called multiple subpial transection (MST) may be an option. MST stops the seizure impulses by cutting nerve fibers in the outer layers of the brain (gray matter), sparing the vital functions concentrated in the deeper layers of brain tissue (white matter).
