Purpose: To quantify extrastriatal and striatal D2/D3 receptor binding in patients with
juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) using the high‐affinity dopamine D2/D3 receptor positron …

Advanced neuroimaging techniques have been utilised with ever increasing frequency over
the last 10 years. A range of structural and functional imaging modalities have been …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) comprise a
common subsyndrome of idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). Previous studies found that …

Brain scanning methods were first applied in patients with epilepsy more than 30years ago.
A very substantial literature now exists in this field, which is exponentially increasing …

The findings of structural neuroimaging studies on gray matter volume (GMV) of juvenile
myoclonic epilepsy (JME) with voxel-based morphometry (VBM) were inconsistent. We aim …

Objective Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) has been considered to be a frontal variant of
thalamocortical network dysfunction in epilepsy. Changes of γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) …

Previous studies using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) provided emerging evidence of
structural changes of the thalamus in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). However, the …

Objective We aimed to identify the consistent regions of gray matter volume (GMV)
abnormalities in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE), and to study the difference of GMV …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques have been used to quantitatively assess
focal and network abnormalities. Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is characterized by …

Background: Quantitative MRI techniques have demonstrated thalamocortical abnormalities
in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). However, there are few studies examining IGE …
