pubmed:abstractText
EEG is widely used during positron emission tomography (PET) to confirm the interictal state of the patient and assist in scan interpretation when a seizure occurs. Ictal scans usually reflect mixed interictal-ictal-postictal metabolic activity as seizures are brief in comparison to the 30-min uptake period of the tracer. We wished to determine whether routine EEG is justified and if seizures commonly affect the diagnostic information of the PET scan.
