Abstract

Investigators from Harvard University and UCLA have reported that despite evidence of structural abnormalities in the visual pathway of animal models and children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), visual evoked potentials (VEPs) in 12-month old children with TSC compared to an age-matched control group are not significantly altered.
