Magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities in encephalomyelitis due to paralytic rabies: A case report

The diagnosis of rabies, a potentially fatal neuroinfectious disease, should be strongly considered in all patients who develop encephalitis following an infected animal bite even when they have received post‐exposure prophylaxis. In the absence of confirmatory tests, typical magnetic resonance imag...

description The diagnosis of rabies, a potentially fatal neuroinfectious disease, should be strongly considered in all patients who develop encephalitis following an infected animal bite even when they have received post‐exposure prophylaxis. In the absence of confirmatory tests, typical magnetic resonance imaging findings help confirm the clinical diagnosis of rabies.
