A subset of children with Febrile Status Epilepticus (FSE) are at risk for development of temporal lobe epilepsy later in life. We sought a non-invasive predictive marker of those at risk, that can be identified soon after FSE, within a clinically realistic timeframe. Longitudinal T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (T2WI MRI) of rat pups at several time points after experimental (e)FSE was performed on a high-field scanner followed by long-term continuous electroencephalography. In parallel, T2WI MRI scans were performed on a 3.0T clinical scanner. Finally, chronic T2WI MRI signal changes were examined in rats that experienced eFSE and imaged month’s later in adulthood. Epilepsy-predicting T2 changes, previously observed at two hours after eFSE, persisted for at least six hours, enabling translation to the clinic. Repeated scans, creating MRI trajectories of T2 relaxation times following eFSE provided improved prediction of epileptogenesis compared with a single MRI scan. Predictive signal changes centered on limbic structures, such as the basolateral and medial amygdala. T2WI MRI changes, originally described on high-field scanners can be also measured on clinical MRI scanners. Chronically elevated T2 relaxation times in hippocampus were observed months after eFSE in rats, as noted for post-FSE changes in children. Early T2WI MRI changes after eFSE provide a strong predictive measure of epileptogenesis following eFSE, both on high-field and clinical MRI scanners. Importantly, the extension of the acute signal changes to at least six hours after the FSE enables its inclusion in clinical studies. Chronic elevations of T2 relaxation times within the hippocampal formation and related structures are common to human and rodent FSE, suggesting that similar processes are involved across species.
