Data on the utilization of paraneoplastic syndrome autoantibody testing at an academic medical center
Paraneoplastic syndromes are rare conditions associated with characteristic autoantibodies produced by malignancy, although similar autoantibodies and clinical presentations may occur in the absence of any neoplasm. Testing for paraneoplastic syndromes often involves panels of autoantibody assays. W...
