Brain positron emission tomography imaging with 18Fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-
PET) has demonstrated utility in suspected autoimmune encephalitis. Visual and/or assisted …

Abstract Purpose F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is
emerging to be a useful tool in supporting the diagnosis of AIE. In this study, we describe the …

Diagnosis of autoimmune encephalitis presents some challenges in the clinical setting
because of varied clinical presentations and delay in obtaining antibody panel results. We …

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential diagnostic benefit of SPM-
based semi-quantitative FDG-PET analysis in autoimmune encephalitis (AE) compared with …

Objective To consolidate current understanding of detection sensitivity of brain 18 F-FDG
PET scans in the diagnosis of autoimmune encephalitis and to define specific metabolic …

Objective: To compare the rate of abnormal brain metabolism by FDG-PET/CT to other
paraclinical findings and to describe brain metabolism patterns in autoimmune encephalitis …

Introduction Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is caused by the antibodies that target receptors
and intracellular or surface proteins. To achieve the appropriate therapeutic results, early …

Autoimmune encephalitis is a diverse group of neuropsychiatric disorders, which are difficult
to diagnose clinically. The disorder presents acutely or subacutely with alteration of …

Background Autoimmune limbic encephalitis (LE) is a neurological condition characterized
by seizures and cognitive dysfunction. Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG-PET) has …

Autoimmune limbic encephalitis (LE) is a rare disorder; its diagnosis can be challenging. We
report two uncommon cases of LE evaluated by brain 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-d-glucose (18 F …
