Epilepsy is a group of neurological diseases characterized by epileptic seizures . Neuroimaging (MRI) to look at the structure of the brain is usually part of the workup . An MRI scan looks at the structure of the brain and may help to find the cause of epilepsy.
All patients with intractable epilepsy considered for surgery should undergo high resolution structural MRI as success of the operative treatment is directly related to the ability to localize precisely the region of seizure onset and underlying structural abnormalities.
