An overview on the research of cortical thickness of juvenile epilepsy based on structural magnetic resonance imaging
Abstract：Juvenile epilepsy is a syndrome with high prevalence and various seizure forms, and has great impact on the development of brain cortex as well as cognitive competence. In order to improve the diagnosis and treatment at early stage, it is essential to study the change of cortical thickness in these patients. Cortical thickness can carry useful information of brain morphologic and pathological characteristics, and is a potentially important biomarker in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. This review covers the findings about the relationship between cortical thickness abnormalities and seizure duration, clinical symptoms and antiepileptic drugs of patients with juvenile epilepsy.
