104 MUO

Today joining Brian and myself in the studio we have Joe Fenn one of our outstanding lecturers here in neurology and neurosurgery. We are discussing the topic of meningoencephalitis of unknown origin (MUO). As Joe explains this has also been known as Meningitis of unknown aetiology, or etiology depending on what side of the pond you are and incorporates necrotising meningoencephalitis (NME) and granulomatous meningoencephalitis (GME). Joe speaks about clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment. Enjoy.
