Improved diagnosis of viral encephalitis in adult and pediatric hematological patients using viral metagenomics
2020-06-06
Abstract excerpt
Metagenomic sequencing is a powerful technique that enables detection of the full spectrum of pathogens present in any specimen in a single test. Hence, metagenomics is increasingly being applied for detection of viruses in clinical cases with suspected infections of unknown etiology and a large number of relevant potential causes. This is typically the case in patients presenting with encephalitis, in particular...
