Diffusion tensor MRI in temporal lobe epilepsy

The purpose of this study was to investigate the diffusion characteristics of white matter in patients with focal temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was applied to patients and normal controls. Rotationally invariant mean diffusivity and diffusion anisotropy maps were calculated for all subjects. Comparisons between the two groups were performed for several white matter structures. Mean diffusivity and diffusion...
