Remodeling of brain morphology in temporal lobe epilepsy

Abstract

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is one of the most widespread neurological network disorders. Computational anatomy MRI studies demonstrate a robust pattern of cortical volume loss. Most statistical analyses provide information about localization of significant focal differences in a segregationist way. Multivariate Bayesian modeling provides a framework allowing inferences about inter‐regional dependencies. We adopt this approach to answer following questions: Which structures within a pattern of dynamic epilepsy‐associated brain anatomy reorganization best predict TLE pathology. Do these structures differ between TLE subtypes?
