PET/MRI proves valuable in difficult epilepsy cases
By Will Morton
PET/MRI can identify the brain lesions causing seizures in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy when standard approaches fail, according to research published on 20 November in Epilepsy Research. The findings may offer hope for patients for whom surgery is often the only treatment option.w

Comparison between PET+MRI (A) and PET/MRI (B); axial and coronal plane, PET alone and co-registered on MRI. The subject is a 17-year-old female with drug-resistant epilepsy since the age of 2 years; nocturnal frontal seizures (3 times per night), left frontotemporal ictal onset, negative MRI (3 tesla). Her first PET examination co-registered on MRI at 11 years considered negative; PET/MRI six years later, showing a focal hypometabolism involving the posterior part of the left orbitofrontal cortex, relative involvement of the adjacent cortex (gyrus rectus, anterior part of the left inferior frontal gyrus) and the temporal pole. This hypometabolism was retrospectively found on the previous PET but remained inconclusive. Note that the co-registration was imperfect on this examination, whereas it was almost perfect on the PET/MRI, allowing a better confidence for the visual analysis. The patient was operated on without invasive monitoring despite a negative MRI scan. Surgery was based on a PET/MR guided cortical resection, including the hypometabolic orbitofrontal cortex and the adjacent inferior frontal gyrus, in front of Broca area. FCD type 2 A was found in the cortical specimen. The patient has been seizure-free for two years and the use of antiepileptic drugs greatly reduced. Image courtesy of Epilepsy Research.
