Metagenomic Next-generation Sequencing of Cerebrospinal Fluid for the Diagnosis of Central Nervous System Infections: A Multicentre Cohort Study
2019-11-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Infectious encephalitis and meningitis are often treated empirically without identification of the causative pathogen, even if comprehensive conventional diagnostic technologies are applied. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is a high throughput technology that enables the detection of pathogens independent of prior clinical or laboratory information. <h4>Methods:</h4> The present...
