MRI confirmation of hippocampal sclerosis in epileptic rats at adulthood. A: MRI scan (7T) at the level of dorsal hippocampus of an epileptic rat at P150 that underwent neonatal status epilepticus, in which unilateral hippocampal sclerosis is evident (arrow). Asterisk denotes signal from hypertrophied ventrical. B: MRI from same epileptic rat in A at a more ventral level. C: Corresponding histology from the imaged animal with same features denoted. D: Imaged separate epileptic rat confirming interanimal similarity in sclerosis as resolved by MRI. Bar in A and B, 1 mm; in C and D, 0.75 mm.
