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...

Sumario: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.
