There is a lack of prospective and population-based epidemiological data on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Germany so far. The purpose of this registry is to investigate the incidence, course and phenotypic variety of ALS in Rhineland-Palatinate, a South-West German state of about 4 million inhabitants.
