[Abstract] Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is called neuropsychiatric lupus (NPSLE) when it is involved in the central nervous system. It seriously affects the quality of patient's life, and is a major cause of disease and death. Early diagnosis and early clinical intervention are the key to improve the prognosis of the patients. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can not only detect the abnormal brain function in the early stage in SLE patients, but also have some advantages in revealing its pathogenesis. In this paper, the application and progress of task-state and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging in neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus are reviewed. |
