Identification of non‐convulsive status epilepticus with bradylalia using arterial spin‐labeling magnetic resonance imaging

Case Non‐convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) is among the differential diagnoses of decreased consciousness, but often presents a diagnostic challenge. A 65‐year‐old woman was admitted to our emergency department with bradylalia. No abnormal finding was detected by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Subsequently, acquired arterial spin‐labeling images showed hyperperfusion in the right hemisphere.
