Abstract:
:Magnetic resonance imaging is an important tool in the evaluation of patients with seizures. Frequently, abnormalities are found that lead to further, invasive testing. The first child with transient abnormal findings on magnetic resonance imaging during a time of frequent partial seizures is presented. This lesion disappeared with seizure control. The imaging literature is reviewed concerning transient findings on any imaging modality during frequent seizures. Caution in recommending invasive procedures is suggested when abnormalities are found on magnetic resonance imaging during frequent seizures.
