Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Nonconvulsive Status Epilepticus
Arch Neurol 58:993-998, Chu,K.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Diffusion-weighted imaging in our patient indicated that the magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities of the affected cortex were due to cytotoxic edema caused by neuronal excitotoxicity during prolonged SE. Diffusion-weighted imaging can b e used in the localization of seizure focus for predicting the prognosis of the affected tissue and for researching the basic pathophysiology of SE.
