Decreased Structural Connectivity Between Thalamic Nuclei and Hippocampus in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy—A Diffusion Tensor Imaging‐Based Study
ANT showed atrophy and decreased connectivity in TLE-HS, which correlated with epilepsy duration and seizure frequency. Understanding the dynamics of epileptogenic networks has the potential to shed light on surgery-resistant epilepsy and refine the selection process for ideal neurosurgical candidates, consequently enhancing post-surgical outcomes.
