Reversible MRI Abnormalities Following Seizures
Neurol 45:104-108, Yaffe,K.,et al, 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We describe eight patients with reversible MRI changes following seizures. The patients were mostly young with a serious underlying medical problem; MRI abnormalities were localized primarily in the posterior vascular boundary zones.A likely mechanism for these lesions is edema secondary to disruption in the blood-brain barrier.Recognition of the transient radiologic changes may aid in the diagnostic and therapeutic management of seizures.
