Enhanced Sensitivity of a Modified Quaking‐Induced Conversion Diagnostic Test for the Broad Detection of Sporadic and Inherited Prion Diseases: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...
