Useful For
Evaluating neurochondrin-IgG by cell-binding assay using spinal fluid from patients presenting with cerebellar and brainstem syndrome
Testing Algorithm
If the indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) pattern suggests neurochondrin, then this test and neurochondrin antibody IFA titer will be performed at an additional charge.
