Summary
This study looks at whether a special brain scan called FDG-PET can help doctors diagnose autoimmune encephalitis, a condition where the immune system attacks the brain. Researchers will compare scans from 90 patients with the disease to healthy people and those with Alzheimer's. The goal is to find a unique brain activity pattern that could lead to faster and more accurate diagnosis.
