Why the study?
Does PCR detection of viruses in cerebrospinal fluid improve diagnostic yield in patients with suspected CNS infections?
Does PCR detection of viruses in cerebrospinal fluid improve diagnostic yield in patients with suspected CNS infections?
PCR results for viruses in CSF, particularly EBV, should be interpreted cautiously when symptoms do not align with the detected virus.
Supports optimized PCR timing/sensitivity for CNS infections; leaves open clinical correlation for discordant viral detections.
