1481 Objectives: To predict and optimize surgical outcomes of patients with refractory
seizures using a combination of PET-CT imaging, scalp EEG (SEEG) and intracranial EEG …

Purpose The purpose of this article is to evaluate the effectiveness of fluorodeoxyglucose
(FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) and PET-magnetic …

633 Objectives: Epilepsy surgery is an underutilized treatment option in patients with
refractory epilepsy, but requires definitive identification of the epileptogenic focus, which is …

1674 Purpose: Fluorine-18 flurodeoxy glucose positron emission tomography/computed
tomography (FDG PET/CT) is one of the imaging modalities used to localize epileptic foci in …

Rationale: Presurgical localization of the epileptogenic focus is critical to successful surgery.
Traditionally, localization of the epileptogenic focus depends on seizure semiology, scalp …

This study applied decision tree analysis to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and cost-
effectiveness of clinical algorithms that incorporate 18F-FDG PET. Methods: A cohort of 176 …

P1383 Introduction: Successful surgical management in focal drug-resistant epilepsy
requires rigorous preoperative evaluation and imaging to accurately localize epileptogenic …

Purpose FDG PET is an established tool in presurgical epilepsy evaluation, but it is most
often used selectively in patients with discordant MRI and EEG results. Interpretation is …

Objectives To evaluate the accuracies of simultaneous 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron
emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging ([18 F]-FDG PET/MRI) in preoperative …

1479 Objectives: Selected cases of partial epilepsy patients whom are non-responsive to
pharmacotherapy may benefit from surgery; therefore identification of structural lesions is …
