Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Epileptogenesis is linked to neuroinflammation. We hypothesized that local heat production caused by neuroinflammation can be visualized non-invasively in vivo via brain magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) and MRSI-thermometry (MRSI-t) and that there is a relationship in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) between MRSI-t and brain metabolites choline and myo-inositol and between...
