Voxel-based analysis of diffusion tensor imaging in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

Highlights • Patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy showed diffusion abnormalities in the temporal stem. • Whole brain voxel-wise analysis revealed more restricted abnormalities than tract- based spatial statistics. • Abnormalities were more easily observed in fractional anisotropy and radial d...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy showed diffusion abnormalities in the temporal stem. • Whole brain voxel-wise analysis revealed more restricted abnormalities than tract- based spatial statistics. • Abnormalities were more easily observed in fractional anisotropy and radial diffusivity maps.
