description | Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) associated with epilepsy is a significant clinical syndrome, which is characterized by refractory seizures, cognitive deficits, neuropsychiatric disturbances. Many studies have been clearly notified that early diagnosis combined with immunotherapy can apparently improve prognosis, thus early diagnosis and treatment are highly essential. In recent years, the neuroimaging, especially functional imaging, plays a critical role in the early diagnosis and prognostic assessment of AE associated with epilepsy. This review summarized the methods and results of functional imaging in the diagnosis of epilepsy associated with AE, to provide an imaging basis for clinical and differential diagnosis and prognostic assessment.
