FAQs

Can MRI detect brain tumors that may cause seizures?

Yes. MRI can identify and characterize brain tumors and other intracranial masses that may be associated with seizures.

Is MRI Brain (Seizure/Epilepsy) different from a routine brain MRI?

Yes. It uses dedicated high-resolution epilepsy sequences to improve detection of subtle abnormalities that may be missed on a standard brain MRI.

Do I need any preparation before the examination?

Usually, no special preparation is required for a non-contrast study. Inform the MRI team about metallic implants, pacemakers, previous surgeries, pregnancy or possible pregnancy, and other implanted medical devices.

Will I need additional tests after MRI Brain (Seizure/Epilepsy)?

Depending on the findings, your doctor may recommend EEG, video EEG, hippocampal volumetry, PET, SPECT, neuropsychological assessment, additional MRI, or specialist neurological evaluation.

Who may need MRI Brain (Seizure/Epilepsy)?

This examination may be recommended for patients with recurrent or unexplained seizures, suspected epilepsy, new-onset seizures, abnormal neurological findings, or suspected structural abnormalities of the brain.
