This test is intended to be ordered for adult patients. If this test is ordered for a patient younger than 18 years of age, it will be canceled and automatically reordered by the laboratory as PCDEC / Pediatric Autoimmune Encephalopathy/CNS Disorder Evaluation, Spinal Fluid. The pediatric autoimmune CNS disorders evaluation is part of an evolving approach to testing for autoimmune neurological disorders using phenotypic-specific evaluations that include multiple antibodies known for their disease association.
