Overview
MRI scan (preferably 3 tesla) should be performed in order to detect epileptogenic lesions. MRI is more sensitive in detecting some findings.
MRI
MRI (preferably 3 tesla) should be performed in order to detect epileptogenic lesions.[1]
MRI is more sensitive in detecting some findings such as hippocampal sclerosis and cortical dysplasia compared to CT scan.[2]
