# Dataset of pre- and postsurgical EEG recorded from epilepsy patients and HFO markings

Summary

We present an electrophysiological dataset recorded from twenty-two subjects during resective epilepsy surgery. We used standard electrodes with 10 mm inter-contact spacing (standard ECoG) in 14 surgeries and high-density grid electrodes with 5 mm spacing (hd-ECoG) in 8 surgeries. We recorded ECoG pre- and post-resection. We detected fast ripples (FR) using a previously validated automatic detector and did visual validation. For each recording, we provide the recorded data and FR markings. We also provide the approximate locations of recordings and resected area. The data was used in our publication "High-density ECoG improves the detection of high frequency oscillations that predict seizure outcome" (doi.org/10.1016/j.clinph.2019.07.008).
