title: Research progress on resting state fMRI of epilepsy.
abstract: As a study method of resting state network (RSN), resting state functional MRI (rfMRI) can be applied to detect low frequency fluctuate (LFF) in various cerebral areas based on resting state blood oxygen level dependence (BOLD) signals; and it is easier and more consistent than task-related fMRI. The development, features and methods of rfMRI as well as the application in epilepsy were reviewed in this article.
