Epileptogenic brain lesions in children: the added-value of combined diffusion imaging and proton MR spectroscopy to the presurgical differential diagnosis
2012
Purpose
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD), dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors (DNTs), and gangliogliomas (GGs) share many clinical features, and the presurgical differential diagnosis of these lesions using conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is challenging in some cases. The purpose of this work was thus to evaluate the capacity of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to distinguish each lesion from the others.
