Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear liquid that cushions and surrounds the brain and spinal cord. It helps support the venous structures around the brain, and it’s important in brain homeostasis and ...

The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless liquid that surrounds and protects the CNS. It bathes the brain and spine in ...

Scientists at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have uncovered a non-invasive method to boost the brain’s natural waste drainage system—a discovery that they suggest could open new avenues for ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a type of clear liquid that surrounds, protects, and cushions your brain and spinal cord from possible injuries. The fluid is held in place by the dura mater, a dense ...

Cerebrospinal fluid washes waste from the brain, eventually draining into the lymph nodes and bloodstream—but exactly how this flow bypasses the brain’s barriers to reach the periphery has remained ...

A CSF leak occurs when cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) escapes from the protective layer surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This is a serious condition that can cause headaches, seizures, or meningitis.

Diagnostic testing of CSF for surrogate disease markers (i.e., 14-3-3 and total tau) assumes that the patient had a history of acute dementia but did not have several conditions that might compromise ...
