摘要
Positron emission tomography (PET) enables tomographic imaging of local concentrations of injected biologically active substances that have been radioactively labeled (radioligands; tracers). Patients can be investigated in the resting state or in relationship to an event (eg, injection of a drug or occurrence of a seizure). This article discusses the use of flumazenil PET and other ligands in focal and idiopathic generalized epilepsies.
