Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-201308
- Comprehensive investigation in motor neuron disease is vital not to miss a treatable differential diagnosis. Neuroborreliosis should be considered during an ALS work‐up. However, false‐positive CSF results do occur, and thus, results should be interpreted carefully in context of all clinical test results.
