The paper presents the results of examining 100 children suffering from various epilepsies by magnetic resonance tomography, which determined a morphological substrate of the disease in 26%. The findings were compared with the clinical picture and the results of routine study tools (skull X-ray, EEG, EchoEG, REG). The diagnostic value of the techniques applied was defined. It is concluded that a set of diagnostic tools rather than individual techniques should be applied to reveal etiological and pathogenetic factors of the disease.
