Abstract
There given the results of brain imaging methods (CT and MRT) in posttraumatic epilepsy. On the background of complex investigation (EEG, CT and MRT) it was shown that imaging methods significantly replenish information on localization and character of focus, especially in heavy craniocerebral injury, the MRT method being more informative. Changes, reflected by CT are revealed in 68% of patients (32% — focal), while changes by MRT — in 64% of patients (52% — focal). To achieve optimal results it is necessary to complexly use EEG and imaging methods, for it is important for making a prognosis, improving conservative and surgical treatment of patients.
