St. Louis encephalitis other imaging findings
Introduction
Overview
Overview
On other imaging findings, St. Louis encephalitis is characterized by generalized slowing without focal activity, a persistent vegetative state, and brain death.[1][2]
Other Imaging Findings
Other Imaging Findings
EEG
Electroencephalographic results often show generalized slowing without focal activity. Electroencephalograph may be helpful in determining whether the patient remains in a persistent vegetative state or is brain-dead.[1][2]
