The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is an invaluable diagnostic tool in
clinical neurology, not only in the evaluation of inflammatory,
degenerative, and malignant diseases of the nervous system, but
also in the diagnosis of all forms of cerebral and subarachnoidal
bleedings. The CSF can be easily obtained by lumbar puncture and a
set of basic analyses can be conducted using relatively simple
laboratory methods. By combining different CSF parameters, a wide
range of diagnostic entities can be identified. However, properly
interpreting the test results requires a high level of expertise
and cannot be achieved by just reporting on individual analytic
values. This book covers essential aspects of cerebrospinal fluid
analysis and its use in the diagnosis of common neurological
diseases. The first part addresses preclinical aspects such as the
history of CSF, as well as the anatomical, physiological, and
biological background of this valuable fluid. In addition, CSF
collection, its preanalytical and methodological implications, and
the increasing number of disease-specific markers in CSF are
discussed in detail. Lastly, CSF analyses are put into context with
clinical syndromes, demonstrating their diagnostic value in
neurological clinical practice. Cerebrospinal Fluid in Clinical
Neurology helps readers understand the preanalytical and analytical
aspects of CSF diagnostics and offers a valuable reference guide
for interpreting CSF results during the clinical work-up for
neurological patients.
