Epilepsy is a chronic nervous system disease caused by abnormal discharge of brain neurons.The main clinical symptoms include convulsions,loss of consciousness,myoclonus,decreased muscle tone and prolonged muscle contraction duration.The thalamus is a key hub in the epilepsy neural network,which is involved in the onset,transmission and other important stages of epilepsy.MRI technology can explore the changes of brain structure,functional activity and neural metabolites,which provides an important non-invasive tool for the study of nervous system diseases,and is of great significance for the study of neurological changes in patients with epilepsy.Therefore,this paper reviews the research status of multimodal MRI techniques in the thalamus of epileptic patients,aiming to further understand the pathological mechanism of epilepsy and develop diagnosis and treatment strategies.
