“…While CSF has some obvious advantages in CNS disease, its use is often limited by the invasive nature of the procedure that precludes its use as a frequent longitudinal marker. In general, there are strong correlations between NF-L levels in CSF, serum, and plasma [97,101,166,167], but while specificity and sensitivity are high in CSF due to the higher levels of NF-L, sensitivity is often lower in plasma [101,164,166,168] and even lower in serum [97]. Finally, the test methods also affect the results.…”
