  • All volumes are presented as mean ± one standard deviation of the mean (range) and given in mm3. Asymmetry ratios (Δ) are presented as mean ± one standard deviation of the mean and given in percentages. HC indicates hippocampus; AMY, amygdala; EC, entorhinal cortex; TLE, temporal lobe epilepsy.
