Pediatric Autoimmune Encephalopathy/CNS Disorder Evaluation, Serum
Additional Codes
LAB2283Ordering Guidance
Multiple neurological phenotype-specific autoimmune/paraneoplastic evaluations are available. For more information as well as phenotype-specific testing options, see Autoimmune Neurology Test Ordering Guide.
When more than one evaluation is ordered on the same order number, the duplicate test will be canceled.
For a list of antibodies performed with each evaluation, see Autoimmune Neurology Antibody Matrix.
This test should not be requested for patients who have recently received radioisotopes, therapeutically or diagnostically, because of potential assay interference. The specific waiting period before specimen collection will depend on the isotope administered, the dose given, and the clearance rate in the individual patient. Specimens will be screened for radioactivity prior to analysis. Radioactive specimens received in the laboratory will be held 1 week and assayed if sufficiently decayed or canceled if radioactivity remains.
Necessary Information

-Relevant clinical information
-Ordering healthcare professional's name, phone number, mailing address, and email address
