Busting the myths-SEIZURES(FITS) SCANS
Does every patient with fits (seizures) need a scan?
Not every patient needs to be scanned
Only after specialist/neurologist consultation should you scan for fits/seizures (some attacks are not even fits - pseudo seizures)
Should you get a CT or an MRI scan for seizure?
CT scan is useful initially as a quick study especially if patient is sick and unstable while bought to the ER but MRI is more sensitive in picking up abnormalities once patient is stabilised
Which MRI scanner is better? 1.5 vs 3T
Epilepsy (Seizures) scans are best done using higher strength scanner (3T > 1.5T if available, T-Tesla, strength of MR magnet)
How long will a seizure (epilepsy) MRI scan take?
Routine epilepsy protocol MRI takes 30-40 minutes inside MRI and it contains basic as well as certain advanced sequences
Will there be a need for contrast injection during the seizure scan?
If the plain (non contrast) study has some abnormalities picked up, contrast injection might be needed to characterise them better as discussed with your radiologist/ specialist who sees your scans
