Abstract
These guidelines are intended to apply to patients with a clear diagno sis of epilepsy. They have been specifically formulated for the manage ment of newly diagnosed patients and those with chronic epilepsy who h ave not been fully evaluated, and are not designed for the full invest igation of patients for possible surgical treatment. Therefore, these recommendations are dedicated to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) but not to functional imaging techniques.
