Fig. 3 Magnetic resonance image of patient with intractable partial epilepsy, snowing intracranial mass in left posterior mesial temporal lobe (arrow). Grade I to II astrocytoma was subsequently resected. (Note: left cerebral hemisphere is on right side of photograph.) (From Fried I, Cascino GD. Lesional surgery. In: Engel J Jr, editor.

Fig. 4 Magnetic resonance image of patient with simple partial seizures consisting of sensory symptoms in left arm, revealing neuronal migration abnormality in right frontal lobe. (Note: right cerebral hemisphere is on left side of photograph.) IP = inferoposterior.

Fig. 5 Magnetic resonance image after injection of gadolinium and diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid, revealing arteriovenous malformation in left posterior temporal lobe (arrow). (Note: left temporal lobe is on right side of photograph.)

Fig. 7 Magnetic resonance image in oblique-coronal plane of patient with mesial temporal sclerosis, revealing atrophy of left hippocampal formation (arrow). Hippocampal volume loss was confirmed with quantitative magnetic resonance image analysis. (Note: left hippocampus is on right side of photograph.) IP = inferoposterior.
