Overview
The term 'seizure' is derived from a Greek word that means 'to take hold'. Different words have been used interchangeably in historical texts, such as epilepsy, epileptic seizure, attack, or convulsion. Epilepsy has been mentioned in many documents and texts throughout history including ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks, Indian (Ayurveda), Persian (Avicenna), and Chinese. Epilepsy was first described by Hippocrates in Ancient Greece (460–377 B.C.). Until the 18th century, epilepsy was considered an idiopathic disease originating in the brain. The foundation of the modern knowledge of epilepsy was through the work of William Cullen and Samuel A. Tissot. In the 19th century, the understanding of epilepsy increased. Electroencephalography (EEG) started to gain attention in the late 19th century. In the 20th century, rapid development in medical knowledge happened (brain CT, brain MRI, and PET scan.
