Pharmacoresistant seizures associate with widespread cortical thickness atrophy in temporal lobe epilepsy

Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) is the most common epileptic syndrome in adults, and also the most resistant to clinical treatment. Several studies were designed to study brain impacts from focal epilepsies. Surface Based Morphometry (SBM) is a well-validated analytical procedure used to quantify corti...

Description
Summary:Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) is the most common epileptic syndrome in adults, and also the most resistant to clinical treatment. Several studies were designed to study brain impacts from focal epilepsies. Surface Based Morphometry (SBM) is a well-validated analytical procedure used to quantify cortical thickness and other parameters in MRI. In the present study, we evaluated cortical involvement in TLE patients in function of seizures control.
