摘要：
The authors assessed the presence of brain abnormalities in 21 patients with nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE), using magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) and mean diffusivity ((D) over bar) histograms. Compared with healthy volunteers and patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy, patients with NFLE had lower MTR (p = 0.002 and 0.01) and (D) over bar (p = 0.03 and 0.04) histogram peak heights. Subtle and widespread abnormalities related to intra- and extracellular distribution and motion of water are detectable in the brains of patients with NFLE.
