pubmed:abstractText |
Metabolic mapping of the human brain has become a widely used method for identifying and localizing epileptic foci. A reduction of glucose consumption usually is found interictally in the area of the focus. By contrast, animal models of acute epilepsy show a hypermetabolism in the epileptic focus. Here we investigated how metabolism is altered in an animal model of chronic epilepsy caused by focal injection of tetanus toxin into rat neocortex.
