摘要：
Assessing Susceptibility to Epilepsy and Epileptic Seizures A method and system adapted to assist with assessing susceptibility to epilepsy and/or epileptic seizures in a patient receives (202) patient brain data and generates (204) a network model from the received patient brain data. The system further generates (206) synthetic brain activity data in at least some of the nodes of the network model and computes (208) seizure frequency from the synthetic brain activity data by monitoring transitions from non-seizure states to seizures states in at least some of the nodes over time. The system further includes a device (104, 110) configured to use the seizure frequency to compute (210) a likelihood of susceptibility to epilepsy and/or epileptic seizures in the patient, and a device (104, 110) configured to compare (212) the computed likelihood with another likelihood of susceptibility to epilepsy and/or epileptic seizures in order to assess whether the likelihood has increased or decreased.
