Volumetric Hippocampal Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Electroenchepalogram of Epilepsy

Abstract

Hippocampal volumetry  is a method of measuring the volume or size of hippocampal structures  in the brain, can be used as a diagnostic aid and monitoring of disease progression conditions or neurological disorders as well as response to treatment. Analyze volumetric measurement of Hippocampus MRI examination Brain 3D T2 FSE with EEG study results  in cases of Epilepsy. Patient data was obtained through MRI examination of Brain 3D T2 FSE to measure volumetric hippocampus. These volumetric results are compared with EEG interpretation  in cases of epilepsy. Statistical analysis was performed to identify the correlation between volumetric changes in the hippocampus and EEG results. There was no difference in the volume of the left hippocampus smaller than the right based on MRI measurements  of Brain 3D T2 FSE in cases of epilepsy. Most (77.27%) shrank right and left. Left lobe temporal brain wave images in all epilepsy patients with irregular ups and downs show abnormalities based on EEG measurements. Brain wave images of the right temporal lobe in epilepsy patients are all normal. Volumetric imaging for epileptic patients cannot establish the diagnosis of epilepsy, because it cannot show an sensibility between the left and right hemisper images
