Brain regions and Brodmann areas displaying significant abnormalities of glucose metabolism in ¹⁸F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography of patients with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (n = 6, p < 0.005, two sample t-test uncorrected for multiple comparisons and an extent threshold of 30 voxels) compared to age and sex matched controls (n = 5).
