A modern approach to CSF analysis: Pathophysiology, clinical application, proof of concept and laboratory reporting
Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 04/08/09

Regeniter A et al. - The CNS immune response often leads to characteristic interrelated biochemical changes in cerebrospinal fluid. Multiple analytes, i.e. cell count, cell differential, evaluation of barrier function and intrathecal IgG, IgA and IgM synthesis should be included in basic diagnostic workup...This approach generates valuable but numerous complex and interrelated biochemical data. The authors therefore developed a knowledge-based system combined with visual oriented laboratory output to transfer the information more effectively. This often uncovers typical patterns specific for distinct neurological diseases, is well accepted by medical community documented by a 37% increase in external ordering.
