Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>BackgroundThe definite diagnosis of human sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) largely depends on postmortem neuropathology and PrP<sup>Sc </sup>detection in the brain. The development of prion RT-QuIC of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples makes it possible for premortem diagnosis for sCJD. However the diagnostic potential of RT-QuIC of skin specimen for probable sCJD is not well re...
