The main finding of this study is that DTI-ALPS index is significantly correlated with global DTI parameters and structural connectivity measures of the brain in patients with focal epilepsy. In addition, DTI-ALPS index decreases with age in these patients. We conclude that the DTI-ALPS index can be used to investigate glymphatic system function in patients with focal epilepsy.
