Evaluating the Clinical Impact of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in CNS Infections: A Diagnostic Pathway and Resource Utilization Modeling Study

In an infectious cohort, nearly 64% of microbiological tests were avoidable, reducing time to diagnosis by almost 7 days per patient. The effect was even more pronounced in autoimmune encephalitis, where 92% of tests were unnecessary—cutting diagnosis time by more than 10 days per patient. See how early use of mNGS could impact your patients and institution utilizing our cost calculator below.
