TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Testing in Neuromuscular Disease A1 - Amato, Anthony A. A1 - Russell, James A. PY - 2015 T2 - Neuromuscular Disorders, 2e AB - The role of laboratory testing in the diagnosis of neuromuscular disease is described in the first chapter. Tests are ideally used to support a clinically established working diagnosis, not in a random search process. False-positive test results occur with some frequency, and can easily lead to unnecessary testing and interventions as well as potential harm if not measured against pensive clinical analysis.
