CSF by Cytocentrifuge
Cytology - CSF by Conventional Method Price
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) refers to the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Analysing the cells present in the CSF can help diagnose various neurological conditions and infections, inflammation, and certain cancers in the central nervous system (CNS). Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) analysis by Cytocentrifuge for Cytology studies involves the examination of cellular components present in the CSF sample. The CSF sample is collected via a lumbar puncture procedure and processed using a cytospin or cytocentrifuge technique. This technique helps concentrate and evenly distribute cells from the CSF onto a glass slide, facilitating microscopic examination. The slide is then stained and observed under a microscope to identify and analyze various cell types, including lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, and abnormal cells such as malignant cells or infectious agents. CSF cytology studies play a vital role in diagnosing and monitoring conditions affecting the central nervous system, such as infections, inflammatory disorders, and central nervous system malignancies. The results of CSF cytology studies provide valuable information for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management in neurology and neurosurgery.
