MRI in Epilepsy (Medical Radiology / Diagnostic Imaging)
MRI can play an important role in identifying and localizing epileptogenic foci. This book aims to provide the clinical and imaging information required in order to decide whether an MRI scan is appropriate and whether it is likely to be sufficient to detect a lesion. The first part of the book presents background information on epilepsy patients and explains how to perform an MRI examination. Detailed attention is paid to functional MRI and post-processing, and the examination of subcategories of patients is also discussed. The second part of the book then documents the MRI findings obtained in the full range of epileptogenic lesions with the aid of high-quality images. Throughout, emphasis is placed on guiding the reader in the correct interpretation of the imaging findings. Both radiologists and referring physicians will find this book to be an indispensable guide to the optimal use of MRI in epilepsy.
Review
From the reviews:
“This multi-author monograph from the reputable publishing house Springer is a timely contribution to this field. … The chapters are well referenced for those who want further details. The book is an excellent scholarly contribution to the field of epilepsy imaging and will serve as a useful reference to be dipped in and out of by all who encounter these investigations in their clinical practice.” (Arpan K. Banerjee, RAD Magazine, January, 2014)
From the Back Cover
Epileptogenic lesions are often small and do not change over time. Moreover, several genetically determined epilepsy syndromes exist, and by definition are not caused by underlying structural lesions. As a result of these circumstances, there is frequently a degree of uncertainty over whether an epileptogenic lesion is being overlooked or simply is not present. MRI can play an important role in resolving such uncertainty and localizing epileptogenic foci.
