Review of clinical and imaging findings in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy to aid in early diagnosis
This study correlates GFAP-A clinical and imaging features, noting a "delay" phenomenon between clinical manifestations, treatment response, and radiographic MRI findings. MRI T2-FLAIR brainstem hyperintensity and T2-FLAIR gadolinium enhanced images, and subtraction techniques were valuable for early lesion detection and accurate diagnosis.
