Overview

Meningitis is an infective condition of the central nervous system (CNS) resulting in the inflammation of the tissues around the brain (meninges). This may result in various neuropsychiatric signs and symptoms. Apart from the clinical history and presentation, various laboratory tests also supplement and help in diagnosing the condition. Timely diagnosis is extremely critical in meningitis and encephalitis as delay in diagnosis can often be fatal. The Film Array Meningoencephalitis panel (ME) is a nested multiplexed nucleic acid test for qualitative detection and identification of 14 bacterial, viral and fungal pathogens from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimen in vitro.
