In a patient with epileposy, which region of focus (by lobe of the brain) is known to have the greatest incidence of NORMAL EEG? Frontal Lobe Seizures from here don't always show up on the EEG Catamenial Epilepsy - What is it? Includes women whose seizures are exacerbated by their menstrual cycle. Women with catamenial epilepsy are unusually sensitive to endogenous hormonal changes. This seizure exacerbation has a statistically significant positive correlation to serum estradiol/...

What are X-rays substantial in doing? correct answers characterizing internal structures that differ largely from their surroundings in the degree to which they absorb x-rays-so they are not useful in photographing the brain Contrast X-ray techniques correct answers involve injecting into one compartment of the body a substance that absorbs X-rays either less then or more than the surrounding tissue/the injected substance then heightens the contrast between the compartment & surrounding tissu...

2.5.2.1. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) MRI is sensitive but not specific in revealing changes associated with PACNS [30]. Lesions are frequently multiple and bilateral and include parenchymal or meningeal enhancing areas, ischemic areas or infarcts in the cortex, deep white matter, or periventricular white matter (Fig. 1A). It may also disclose hemorrhagic lesions [31, 32]. The sensitivity of MRI in biopsy-proven PACNS is very high, disc...
