W. ; Garcia, Hector H. ; Cysticercosis Working Group in Peru | Oxford University Press | 2018-11-30T02:09:29ZBackground: The enzyme-linked immunoelectrotransfer blot (EITB) assay is the reference serological test for neurocysticercosis (NCC). A positive result on EITB does not always correlate with the presence of active infections in the central nervo[...]texto impreso

Javier ; Garcia, Hector H. ; Cysticercosis Working Group in Peru | Elsevier | 2018-11-30T02:09:31ZOBJECTIVE: Discordances between imaging findings of parenchymal neurocysticercosis and seizure expression have been reported, and as such the possibility that neurocysticercosis and seizures may frequently coexist by chance has been raised. In t[...]texto impreso
