High-resolution MRI is an important tool in the diagnosis of structural epilepsy |in determining the seizure initiation zones, identification of the mechanisms of epileptogenesis in predicting outcomes and preventing postoperative complications in patients. In this article we have tried to demonstrate the neuroradiological and pathohistological characteristics of the main epileptogenic substrates in children using modern classification. The second part of the article is devoted to the spectrum of epileptogenic cerebral disorders, in addition to cortical malformations.

High-resolution MRI is an important tool in the diagnosis of structural epilepsy in determining the seizure initiation zones, identification of the mechanisms of epileptogenesis in predicting outcomes and preventing postoperative complications in patients. In this article we demonstrate the neuroradiological and pathohistological characteristics of the main epileptogenic substrates in children using modern classification. The first part of the article is devoted to cortical malformations as the most common epileptogenic cerebral disorders.

Comprehensive multimodal examination of patients with focal refractory epilepsies is currently a prerequisite for high-quality pre-surgical diagnostics, which aims not only to expand the indications for radical treatment of epilepsy, but also to avoid the appearance of severe postoperative deficits. High-resolution MRI plays a key role in preoperative assessment. In this review, we illustrate the modern aspects of a pre-surgical diagnostical complex in examinations of patients with focal drug-resistant epilepsy, including the possibilities of neuroimaging.
