Seizures have many different manifestations, with diverse clinical signs and symptoms, together referred to as ictal semiology [1–4]. Semiology can help determine the hemisphere and lobe of seizure onset. To characterise a patient’s habitual seizures, admission is often required to a long-term electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring unit (LTM). A video recording of all captured seizures is correlated with the simultaneously recorded EEG to either confirm or refute the epileptic nature of the event [5], and in presurgical cases potentially identify the hemisphere (lateralisation) and cerebral lobe (localisation) of seizure onset [6].
