Our objective was to assess their accuracy in an independent multicenter cohort.
Methods: We evaluated the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnostic criteria for ALSP (including the "probable" and "possible" definitions) in a national cohort of 22 patients with CSF1R mutation, and 59 patients with an alternative diagnosis of adult onset inherited leukoencephalopathy.
