USE OF GFAP FOR IDENTIFICATION OF INTRACEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of glial fibrillary acidic protein (=GFAP) as a diagnostic marker for intracerebral hemorrhage. The invention especially relates to methods for the early detection of intracerebral hemorrhage. Such early and rapid detection can be performed rapidly e.g. by a test strip format assay. GFAP can be used as a stand-alone marker or in combination with one or more other markers.
