Immunofixation consists of an electrophoresis phase and a fixation phase. [1] Serum or urine immunofixation negative for a monoclonal protein or a polyclonal pattern is considered to be normal. Cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) immunofixation that does not reveal oligoclonal bands is also considered norm...
Leukocytosis in lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) can occur in the post-operative period after cranial surgery. However the clinical relavance of this raised CSF white blood cell (WBC) count, in the absence of bacterial growth (also referred to as ‘aseptic meningitis’) or clinical symptoms, re...

(FDG-PET) (De Santi et al., 2001), or pathological amyloid depositions measured fromcerebrospinal fluid(CSF) (Leon et al., 2007;Mattsson et al., 2009). Among all these measurements, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays an increasingly important role, owning to its noninvasiveness, ...
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein levels reflect ongoing biological processes that take place in the brain. Studying which CSF proteins associate with dementia risk loci could reveal intermediate molecular pathways connecting genetic variance to the development of disease.We aimed to identify protein ...
context-dependent patterns; (4) neuroinflammatory mechanisms should not be inferred based solely on blood inflammatory marker changes; and (5) standardized reporting of CSF inflammatory marker assay validation and performance will improve incorporation of inflammatory markers into the biological AD criteria....
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is essential in the diagnosis of the infectious diseases of the central nervous system. It is also helpful in the differential diagnosis of other conditions that simulate infectious disorders and in monitoring the effects of antibiotic therapy. The CSF is formed by...
Intracranial pressure (ICP) is derived from cerebral blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulatory dynamics and can be affected in the course of many diseases of the central nervous system. Monitoring of ICP requires an invasive transducer, although some attempts have been made to measure it non...
