title: [Magnetic resonance imaging and herpetic encephalitis].
abstract: Cerebral lesions in two cases of herpetic encephalitis were detected by MRI using a spin-echo sequence and delayed echo signal recordings, whereas CT scans were normal. In one case pathology showed lesions to be more extensive than MRI anomalies. This suggests that even in the absence of EEG and CT anomalies, an encephalitis can be suggested by MRI.
