title: Neurocysticercal serodiagnosis--updated.
abstract: For diagnosis of neurocysticercosis the gold standard would be a stereotactic biopsy and histological confirmation which are not universally available or acceptable to patients, hence the necessity of immunodiagnosis. The authors have narrated beautifully the serodiagnostic aspects of neurocysticercosis in its updated form and have discussed the subject with proper references.
