Neuroimaging plays an important and increasing role in assessing patients with epilepsy. This article focuses on procedures used to evaluate patients who have failed medical treatment for epilepsy but may benefit from resective surgery. Radiologic assessment and use of the intracarotid amobarbital procedure are described.
