74417-7
LaboratoryMeasles virus IgM Ab [Presence] in Cerebral spinal fluid by Immunoassay
Definition
Test for the presence of measles virus IgM antibodies in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) to aid in determining a patient's serological status to measles virus. This term is based on, but not limited in use to, the LIAISON® Measles IgM assay, which uses chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) technology for the qualitative determination of specific IgM antibodies to measles virus.
