Magnetic Resonance Imaging Characteristics of LGl1-Antibody and CASPR2-Antibody Encephalitis
JAMA Neurol 81:525-533, Kelly,Mark J., et al, 2024
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In this study, T2 and/or FLAIR hyperintensities confined to the temporal lobes, without diffusion restriction or contrast enhancement, robustly distinguished LGI1/CASPR2-Ab-E from key differential diagnoses. These observations should assist clinical decision making toward expediting immunotherapy. Their generalizability to other forms of autoimmune encephalitis and VE should be examined in future studies.
