How Is Guillain-Barré Syndrome Diagnosed?

Diagnosis of GBS is based on clinical symptoms and tests, such as:

  • Lumbar Puncture: To check for elevated protein levels in the cerebrospinal fluid.
  • Electromyography (EMG): To measure the electrical activity of muscles and nerve responses.
  • Nerve Conduction Studies: To assess how well the nerves transmit signals.
