Neocortical hypometabolism in TLE follows a predictable spatial gradient linked to the hippocampus. Resecting areas with the most severe metabolic decline significantly increases the likelihood of long-term seizure freedom. Patients should discuss advanced quantitative PET/MRI mapping with their surgical team.
