Brain CT scan findings in epileptic patients referred to Kermanshah neurological clinic

Abstract

Background: Imaging studies performed in research centers suggest a high prevalence of brain structural abnormalities in patients with epilepsy. However, the results of research studies may not be directly applicable to general clinic, because they may perform on patients with high probability of cerebral abnormalities. On the other hand, more advanced modalities are likely to be used in research studies for the detection of such abnormalities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the brain CT scan findings in epileptic patients in neurological clinics.
