Source reconstructed time series were bandpass filtered, and long\u2010range functional connectivity was quantified using imaginary coherence. Network disturbance maps were computed as T\u2010score maps, comparing functional connectivity in epilepsy cohorts to controls, across topographical parcels and frequency bands. Spatial similarity of temporal and extratemporal network dysfunction maps were assessed using Pearson correlations.
