Abstract：The diagnosis and treatment of refractory epilepsy are challenging and often associated with generally poor prognoses.Integrated PET/MRI combines the advantages of PET and MRI imaging modalities,enabling the simultaneous acquisition of structural,functional,and molecular-level information.This comprehensive and objective approach provides valuable diagnostic and therapeutic insights for patients with refractory epilepsy.This article briefly outlines the imaging principles of integrated PET/MRI,and reviews its clinical applications in the preoperative localization and postoperative follow-up evaluation of refractory epilepsy.
