Abstract
A series of 150 patients with seizure disorders was analyzed in detail. Older individuals (> 65 yr) with a short duration of seizure activity at the time of computerized tomography (CT) examination (< 6 mo.), associated with specific neurological findings and focal seizures secondarily generalized, produced the highest number of intracranial CT abnormalities. Relationships between CT, EEG and other diagnostic procedures and pertinent historical and neurological findings are discussed.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
