New research by UCLA Health has found a simple blood test could provide faster and more accurate diagnosis of ALS by measuring cell-free DNA. While more study is needed, researchers say the ...

Researchers have developed a blood test for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) that could lead to more rapid and accurate diagnosis when used alongside standard clinical evaluations. Investigators ...

Researchers with NIH say they’ve found proteins in blood that accurately detect ALS long before symptoms emerge. The study findings could help with early detection, definitive testing, and tracking ...

New research by UCLA Health has found a simple blood test could provide faster and more accurate diagnosis of ALS by measuring cell-free DNA. The noninvasive test could not only allow neurologists to ...

UCLA Health researchers have developed a novel blood test that measures cell-free DNA, offering a promising new method for earlier and more accurate ALS detection. This non-invasive test can ...

A new study has found a marker of ALS outcomes through brain imaging. This marker can be measured in the brain during its resting state and highlights the importance of the brain’s ability to adapt to ...

Blood tests may enable more accurate diagnosis of ALS at an earlier stage of the disease. As described in a recent study, it involves measuring the blood level of a substance that, as they have also ...
