The rCBF brain SPECT with 99mTc-HMPAO was performed in 15 children with interictal epilepsy
and some cases were compared with EEG
X-ray CT and MRI.The results showed that the positive rate of SPECT was the highest(93.33%
)
thenthe EEG (92.31%)
and the CT and MRI were the lowest(66.67% and 75%).This study indicated that brain SPECT was an effective method for diagnosis and foci localization in epileptic children
and also was useful to the study of prognosis and relationship between changes of rCBF and progress in clinical pictures.
