Useful For

Diagnosis of inflammatory demyelinating diseases (IDDs) with similar phenotype to neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), including optic neuritis (single or bilateral) and transverse myelitis

 

Diagnosis of autoimmune myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-opathy

 

Diagnosis of neuromyelitis optica

 

Distinguishing NMOSD, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic neuritis, and transverse myelitis from multiple sclerosis early in the course of disease

Testing Algorithm

When the results of this assay require further evaluation of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG-IgG1), the MOG-IgG1 titer will be performed at an additional charge.

 

When the results of this assay require further evaluation of neuromyelitis optica (NMO)/Aquaporin-4-IgG, the neuromyelitis optica (NMO)/aquaporin-4-IgG titer will be performed at an additional charge.
