[Abstract] Epilepsy is a neurological syndrome with brain dysfunction and behavioral abnormality caused by sudden abnormal discharge of the spontaneous neurons. Neuroimaging plays a significant role in the diagnosis of epilepsy, and magnetic resonance imaging has been considered to as the first choice of all imageological methods. Currently, new techniques such as diffusion imaging, magnetic spectroscopic imaging and functional magnetic resonance imaging have been widely studied in epilepsy. In this article, we reviewed the recent application progresses of new magnetic resonance imaging techniques in epilepsy.
