As a pediatrician I would like to know some details... For how much time seizure lasted?? Was it associated with fever?? After how much time of seizure MRI and eeg was done?? Prolonged seizure can cause brain damage and many a times it is not detected if MRI was done immediately... I would like to take detailed history and clinical examination... After that a ct brain, repeat MRI or mr angiography brain may be needed in this case...
