Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in the acute phase of the pilocarpine-induced model of epilepsy

Magnetic resonance images are useful in the study of experimentalmodels of temporal lobe epilepsy. The manganese-enhanced MRI(MEMRI) technique is of interest since it combines the effects causedby manganese on the increased contrast in activated cell populations,when competing with calcium in synapt...
