摘要
Partial seizures are manifestations of abnormal epileptic firing of brain cells in a localised area or areas of the brain. The diagnosis of partial seizures entails initially an electroencephalogram (EEG), a detailed history from the patient and eyewitnesses, as well as computer tomographic (CT) or preferably magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Video EEG to record ictal events may be necessary to establish the correct diagnosis.
