Application of the modified Zajicek criteria to diagnose probable spinal cord neurosarcoidosis

Neurosarcoidosis represents a significant diagnostic challenge, as clinical features overlap with other neuroinflammatory conditions, and biopsy of affected neuronal tissue is often high risk or not feasible. Here we highlight application of the modified Zajicek criteria to diagnose probable spinal...

description Neurosarcoidosis represents a significant diagnostic challenge, as clinical features overlap with other neuroinflammatory conditions, and biopsy of affected neuronal tissue is often high risk or not feasible. Here we highlight application of the modified Zajicek criteria to diagnose probable spinal neurosarcoidosis in the absence of histology from affected neuronal tissue.
