Cortical and thalamic hyper-perfusion in non-convulsive status epilepticus. Relationship between perfusion CT patterns and Salzburg EEG criteria.

Introduction: Status epilepticus (SE) is a neurological emergency and in particular nonconvulsive SE (NCSE) represents a diagnostic challenge. To improve clinical decision-making, cerebral perfusion-computed tomography (PCT) has been shown as a helpful tool to support the diagnosis of focal NCSE.

Materials And Methods: This is a monocentric retrospective study.
