[Novel imaging methods in the diagnosis of epilepsy].

The primary aim of resonance of epilepsy patients is to detect the possible structural aetiology of epilepsy. Imaging will also help in the diagnosis of the epileptic syndrome and thus in the evaluation of prognosis of epilepsy. The neuroradiologist and nuclear medicine specialist will benefit from a good referral devised by a clinician, including among other things a mention, into which brain region the EEG finding is localized. Surgical treatment of epilepsy can be contemplated in difficult epilepsy, especially if the finding in magnetic imaging is clear and compatible with the clinical seizure picture and EEG recording.
