Structural changes in the temporal lobe and piriform cortex in frontal lobe epilepsy
•Voxelwise analysis of structural images is performed in a group of patients with FLE.•Structural abnormalities are found in piriform cortex and adjacent structures including amygdala.•These common areas of structural abnormality are seen independently of the side of seizure focus lateralisation.•Th...
