Prospective Quantitative Neuroimaging Analysis of Putative Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Purpose: A prospective study of individual and combined quantitative imaging applications for lateralizing epileptogenicity was performed in a cohort of consecutive patients with a putative diagnosis of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE).Methods: Quantitative metrics were applied to MRI and nuclea...
