Synopsis

Keywords: Neuro, Epilepsy

Epilepsy is the most common chronic neurological disorder with significant morbidity and mortality. Frontal lobe epilepsy is a common type of seizure after temporal lobe epilepsy, which makes the diagnosis of frontal lobe epilepsy and its treatment difficult due to its presence of not only motor symptoms but also other autonomic symptoms during seizures. Arterial spin labeling can be used to identify brain regions and brain network lesions associated with the propagation of epileptiform activity, and is of higher investigative value especially in children with negative MRI.
