Authors found the sensitivity, specifi city, and positive and negative predictive values of the toxoplasma antibody in blood and lumbar and ventricular CSF as 100%. This gives colleagues the idea that we can diagnose cerebral toxoplasmosis in HIV patients with total confi dence by doing serology in blood or CSF (lumbar or ventricular). [1]
