This retrospective study was performed on ninety-eight patients diagnosed with refractory epilepsy whose presurgical evaluation included [ F]-FDG PET/MRI, with 1-year post-surgery follow-up between August 2016 and December 2018. PET/MRI images were interpreted by two radiologists and a nuclear medicine physician to localize the EOZ using standard visual analysis and asymmetry index based on standard uptake value (SUV). The localization accuracy and predictive performance of simultaneous F-FDG PET/MRI based on the surgial pathology and postsurgical outcome were evaluated. A total of 41.8% (41/98) patients were found to have a definitely structural abnormality on the MR portion of PET/MRI; 93.9% (92/98) were shown hypometabolism on the PET portion of the hybrid PET/MRI. PET/MRI identified 18 cases withion between PET/MRI and surgical resection range was a good positive predictor of seizure freedom; presurgical [ F]-FDG PET/MRI will probably improve the surgical outcome. • Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of [18F]-FDG PET/MRI were 95.3%, 8.8%, and 65.3% for seizure onset localization based on surgical pathology and postsurgical outcome, respectively. • Concordance of EOZ localization between PET/MRI and surgical resection range was a good positive predictor of seizure freedom; presurgical [18F]-FDG PET/MRI will probably improve the surgical outcome. The data regarding overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) following irreversible electroporation (IRE) is scarce. We performed a systematic review of the safety and efficacy of IRE for liver malignancies. Searches of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases were performed through September 1, 2019. Studies reporting the survival data (OS and
