F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography metabolic phenotype in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-positive autoimmune epilepsy

F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography metabolic phenotype in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-positive autoimmune epilepsy

We describe the metabolic phenotype on F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) in a 13-year-old female with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-positive encephalitis. Unilateral hemispheric hypometabolism on PET may be the metabolic phenotype of autoimmune epilepsy...

Zusammenfassung:We describe the metabolic phenotype on F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) in a 13-year-old female with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-positive encephalitis. Unilateral hemispheric hypometabolism on PET may be the metabolic phenotype of autoimmune epilepsy associated with MOG antibody.
