Brain sodium MRI in human epilepsy: Disturbances of ionic homeostasis reflect the organization of pathological regions

In light of technical advancements supporting exploration of MR signals other than 1H, sodium (23Na) has received attention as a marker of ionic homeostasis and cell viability. Here, we evaluate for the first time the possibility that 23Na-MRI is sensitive to pathological processes occurring in huma...
