Other Diagnostic Studies

• Other diagnostic studies associated with rabies may include:
  • The nucleic acid sequence ̶ based amplification (NASBA) technique on urine samples may be helpful in the future diagnosis of rabies.
  • The nucleic acid sequence ̶ based amplification (NASBA) technique on CSF and saliva may be used for the diagnosis of rabies after 2 days of the start of symptoms.
