摘要：
The diagnosis of rabies, a potentially fatal neuroinfectious disease, should be strongly considered in all patients who develop encephalitis following an infected animal bite even when they have received post-exposure prophylaxis. In the absence of confirmatory tests, typical magnetic resonance imaging findings help confirm the clinical diagnosis of rabies.
