Abstract Interictal 18F‐Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET) is used in the workup for epilepsy surgery when MRI and EEG video monitoring are not conclusive. Timing of FDG‐PET is crucial to avoid the metabolically dynamic (post)ictal state that complicates interpretation, but th...
