Abstract

Viral encephalitis is a kind of disease caused by nervous system virus infection, which is more common in children. From the point of view of sequelae of this disease, neglect of treatment will lead to disability, and the incidence rate is high. So early detection, early treatment become the key. For the early diagnosis of viral encephalitis, mainly because it’s similar to other fever, there is a certain degree of difficulty in clinical judgment. Especially in the later stage, serious symptoms such as disturbance of consciousness will appear, which will affect patients’ health. Therefore, whether MRI diagnosis can be used to achieve early detection is the more concerned content of domestic and foreign medical circles. For viral encephalitis, EEG, cerebrospinal fluid detection and CT are more common for a long time, while MRI for cranial imaging examination is relatively less used. However, MRI was the most accurate from the effect of clinical diagnosis. This paper will discuss the influencing factors of the accuracy of diagnosis.
