Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a neurological disorder characterized by inflammation of the brain. Unlike infectious encephalitis, which is triggered by external pathogens, autoimmune encephalitis occurs when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy brain cells. The consequences can range from subtle cognitive changes to severe neurological impairment, making early detection and intervention crucial.

The Importance of Early Diagnosis

The overlap of some encephalitis symptoms with other more common neurological or psychiatric manifestations can often make a diagnosis very challenging, which could risk a delay in correct diagnosis and prompt access to disease-modifying therapies.

10 Years of Autoimmune Encephalitis Test Data

We have been offering diagnostic testing for AE for ten years. Over the years, we have helped many patients get a correct diagnosis. To commemorate this milestone achievement, we have collected data about our testing and created a web presentation.
