title: Estimation of resection volumes in lesional epilepsy surgery.
abstract: An MR-based method for measuring resection volumes in lesional epilepsy surgery is described. The volume of the preoperative lesion, the resection cavity and, as a result, the volume of the brain surrounding the lesion resected during surgery have been calculated in 13 patients.
