ENKG (Epileptic Nucleus of Gardner)

The Epileptic Nucleus of Gardner (ENKG) is a small part of the brain located deep within the thalamus, involved in controlling signals related to epilepsy. It is known to play a role in the propagation and regulation of seizure activity in some individuals with epilepsy. Understanding the ENKG helps researchers and clinicians develop targeted treatments, such as deep brain stimulation, to help reduce or control seizures. Its study contributes to the broader understanding of how certain brain structures influence epilepsy, potentially leading to more effective therapies in the future.
