摘要

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a well-established technique for the evaluation of pediatric epilepsy. This retrospective study includes 57 cases of children with epilepsy (33 boys and 24 girls), with an age range from 1 month to 14 years, who underwent brain MRI evaluation. The aim of this study was to identify predictive factors for pathological MRI. Through our series, we identified three predictive factors for pathological MRI findings: early onset of epileptic seizures, developmental delay, and, finally, an abnormal neurological examination.
