Epilepsy surgery remains underutilized, in part because non-invasive methods of potential seizure foci localization are inadequate. We used high-resolution, parametric quantification from dynamic 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (dFDG-PET) imaging to locate hypometabolic foci in patients whose standard clinical static PET images were normal. We obtained dFDG-PET brain images with simultaneous EEG in a one-hour acquisition on seven patients with no MRI evidence of foc ...[more]
