Epilepsy Imaging From Prenatal Stages To Late Adulthood

The neuroradiology course provides an in-depth look at the key aspects of imaging in epilepsy, focusing on the following areas:

Nomenclature and Classification of Epileptic Seizures: Gain a clear understanding of the latest terminology and classification systems used to describe epileptic seizures and epilepsy syndromes. This section will explore the spectrum of seizure types, including focal, generalized, and unknown onset seizures, and how these relate to imaging findings.

Imaging Protocols to Answer Clinical Questions: Learn how to tailor imaging protocols for specific clinical questions, optimizing the use of MRI and other modalities for the evaluation of epilepsy. You will cover essential protocols for both structural and functional imaging, as well as the role of advanced techniques like high-resolution MRI and functional MRI (fMRI) in epilepsy diagnosis.

Examples of Typical MR Findings: Explore a range of typical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in patients with epilepsy. From hippocampal sclerosis and focal cortical dysplasia to more subtle abnormalities like cortical malformations, this section will highlight common and distinctive imaging features that help pinpoint the underlying cause of epilepsy.

Unilabs Academy online radiology fellowships with certificates are held in a virtual classroom on Zoom. You are encouraged to engage in discussions using their camera and microphone to recreate the face-to-face experience. In this small group environment among your peers, you are free to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn together with the support of the radiologist mentor. Live sessions are recorded so that participants can review on their own time following the training.

Testimonials:

🗨 “Very informative regarding focal cortical dysplasias and beyond."
(Fellow, June 2026)

🗨 “This structure of Unilabs Academy Courses not only fosters independent learning and critical analysis but also supports participants in maintaining familiarity with current terminology and recent developments in the field.”
Dra. Andrea Lakatos (Fellow, November 2025)

🗨 “The epilepsy course was very well-structured and highly informative, covering neuroimaging from prenatal stages to adulthood. The case discussions, focus on developmental anatomy, differential diagnoses, and practical reporting tips were particularly valuable. It has greatly improved my confidence in interpreting epilepsy imaging and will benefit my clinical practice. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in epilepsy imaging.”
