Autoimmune Encephalitis Extended Panel, Serum
Copy Utility
Differential evaluation of encephalitis of unknown origin with subacute onset of seizures, confusion, memory loss, and/or behavioral change. Detects antibodies in addition to those included in Autoimmune Encephalitis Reflexive Panel, Serum (2013601). Testing for LGI1 and CASPR2 antibodies is always performed rather than only as a reflex. For adults and patients with suspicion of cancer, additional evaluation of paraneoplastic autoantibodies is recommended; refer to Paraneoplastic Reflexive Panel (3002929).
