Abstract
- Significant technological advances have improved our ability to localize epilepsy and investigate the electrophysiology in patients undergoing preparation for epilepsy surgery. Conversely, our process of decisionāmaking and outcome prediction has remained essentially restricted to subjective clinical judgment. This may have hindered our ability to improve outcomes. In this review, we highlight the cognitive biases that interfere with medical decisionāmaking and present data on the use of algorithms and statistical models in general health care, before pivoting to discuss applications in the context of epilepsy.
