Epilepsy patient:
L'élément caractéristique consiste en des anomalies lentes delta amples et polymorphes hémisphériques diffusant parfois en temporal gauche.
I'm getting in a bit of a muddle with this sentence. So far I've got: Lateralized polymorphic delta slowing...
But I'm not sure how to translate "amples" here.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

high-amplitude
I'm no expert on EEG, but I understand 'ample' to mean high-amplitude.
e.g. "Polymorphic high-amplitude delta is usually present over all or part of the affected hemisphere"
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=BUs-AYMBbC0C&pg=PA539&lpg...
"The EEG shows high-amplitude polymorphic delta slow waves"
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=6Kq4Zt2KOpcC&pg=PA2354&lp...
