Epilepsy awareness among physicians in plains and plateau regions of western China: a cross-sectional study

Both plateau and plains regions lack awareness of advanced preoperative evaluation techniques. Targeted training and capacity-building interventions are needed, with effectiveness evaluated through longitudinal studies.
