Analysis of terms used for the diagnosis and classification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and motor neuron disease
- Abstract:
-
There is no test for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and so attempts have been made to produce standardised diagnostic criteria based on clinical and electrophysiological findings. The phenotypic classification of the subtypes of ALS is also based on clinical features, which leads to conflation of diagnosis and phenotype. We gave a five question online survey to ALS specialists to explore the range of descriptors and their use. Of 101 specialists approached, 72 completed the survey. The m...
