What is the full form of CSF?
CSF stands for Cerebrospinal Fluid. Located in the brain and spinal cord, it is a transparent and colorless substance. The central nervous system (made up of the brain and spinal cord) performs organ operation, muscle movement, and complex thought processing and preparation. In short, it controls and regulates everything one does.
Features of CSF
- Serves as a cushion against brain and spinal cord damage or sudden impact and protects the central nervous system.
- Helps the nervous system function properly and reduces waste materials from the brain.
- A CSF examination looks at the cerebrospinal fluid and helps diagnose illnesses and conditions affecting the brain & the spinal cord.
- CSF Analysis and Spinal Fluid Analysis are some other CSF terms.
- Helps in the diagnosis of brain tumors, brain damage, infectious brain and spinal cord disorders, and autoimmune disorders.
- Albumin protein and IgG/albumin are some CSF tests.
