Abstract：Objective To study the role of videc-EEG(VEEG) monitoring and CT in the diagnosis, etiology and type. Methods Eighty epilepsy patients received VEEG monitor and CT exams. Results The epileptiform discharge was found in 33(41.2%)cases taking REEG. The epileptiform discharge was found in 62(77.5%) cases taking VEEG. VEEG epileptiform discharge rate was significantly higher than conventional EEG. CT found abnor-nudity in 24 cases(30.0%), showing a significantly different abnormality rate between CT and VEEG(P <0.01). Conclusion The VEEG can greatly improve the positive rate of EEG in the patients with epilepsy, h is practical especially for suspicious patients without obvious clinical symptoms. The application of CT is an important method of finding the cause of epilepsy. CT combined with VEEG has great importance in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of epilepsy.
