    AbstractEpileptogenic lesions are often subtle, do not change during life, and are easily overlooked, if spatial resolution and signal to noise ratio are inappropriate. 2D or more recently 3D-FLAIR sequences are best suited to detect small cortical dysplasias which are often located at the bottom of a sulcus. 3D-T1-weighted gradient echo sequences are used for multiplanar, curved surface reformations, and voxel-based analyses. 3 T MR imaging is currently the state-of-the-art imaging modality for patients with suspected structural epilepsies in which an epileptogenic lesion has not yet been found.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
