Heritability of subcortical volumetric traits in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.

Heritability of subcortical volumetric traits in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to 1) determine if subcortical volume deficits are common to mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) patients and their unaffected siblings 2) assess the suitability of subcortical volumetric traits as endophenotypes for MTLE. METHODS: MRI-based volume measurements of the hippocamp...
