Distinguishing autoimmune nodopathies from CIDP, with Dr. Ruth Huizinga and Dr. Maarten Titulaer

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) can be difficult to distinguish from autoimmune nodopathy. In this podcast, Dr. Saima Chaudhry (1) is joined from the Netherlands by Dr. Ruth Huizinga (2) and Dr. Maarten Titulaer (3), to discuss their article, "Clinical relevance of distinguishing autoimmune nodopathies from CIDP: longitudinal assessment in a large cohort". They start with explaining what an autoimmune nodopathy really is, patient features to look out for, and the typical testing process for identifying CIDP.
