- Document
- Original educational diagram
- Scope
- No real examination simulated
- Takeaway
- Context, data quality and absence of a better explanation remain essential.
Diagram description
The pathway summarises questions in suspected MS. It distinguishes the revision date from the publication date.
Reasoning
Context, data quality and absence of a better explanation remain essential.
Clinical comparison
Interpret the findings together and investigate competing explanations when data do not agree.
Pitfalls and limits
This is a conceptual educational aid, not an authentic examination, a complete diagnostic rule or an individual prescription. See the cited sources and full French statement of limitations.
Take-home message
Context, data quality and absence of a better explanation remain essential.
