Image post-processing in magnetic resonance imaging-negative focal epilepsy / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

Epilepsy is a chronic neurologic disorder caused by abnormal discharge of neurons in the brain. Imaging examination is of great significance in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, but some patients failed to find any apparent abnormality in conventional magnetic resonance imaging. Recently, a variety of imaging post-processing techniques are applied in clinical practice, which have significantly improved the detection rate of epileptic lesions. In this paper, the research progress of various imaging post-processing techniques in magnetic resonance imaging negative focal epilepsy is reviewed.
