Background: Severe complications of giant cell arteritis (GCA), such as blindness and ischemic stroke, can be prevented by timely treatment. This requires early and accurate diagnosis. In 2019, Laskou et al. developed a clinical GCA probability score (GCAPS) that allows physicians to assess the probability of GCA at initial assessment.
