Abstract
- This document, published in the Journal of Neurology, explores the use of [18F]DPA-714-PET-MRI as a diagnostic tool for autoimmune limbic encephalitis (ALE) with specific autoantibodies. The study involved two patients with these autoantibodies, and the results showed increased tracer uptake in certain areas of the brain. The study suggests that [18F]DPA-714-PET-MRI could be a valuable tool for diagnosing ALE and assessing the immune response in the brain. However, further research is needed to fully understand its potential for clinical use in ALE. [Extracted from the article]
