Advanced [18F]FDG and [11C]flumazenil PET analysis for individual outcome prediction after temporal lobe epilepsy surgery for hippocampal sclerosis

Abstract

This study extends the association between periventricular WM increases and NSF outcome to clinical [(18)F]FDG-PET, but only at the group level. Whole-brain random forest classification increases [(11)C]FMZ-PET's performance for predicting surgery outcome.
