Epilepsy is a serious disease affecting millions of
people worldwide. The Internet is filled with
hundreds of stories from toddlers to adults on how
this disease has altered the way they live life daily.
Diagnosing which type of epilepsy is tricky the use
of multiple diagnostic imaging modalities in
conjunction makes this process much easier. This
disease takes as many lives as breast cancer each
year.
