Characterize the non-Gaussian diffusion property of cerebrospinal fluid using Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging and explore its diagnostic efficacy for Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Differentiating Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients from healthy controls (HCs) remains a challenge. The changes of protein level in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of AD patients have been reported in the literature. Macromolecules will hinder the movement of water in CSF and lead to non-Gaussian diffusion.

Cerebrospinal fluid protein carbonylation identifies oxidative damage in autoimmune demyelination [PDF]
Oxidative damage occurs in multiple sclerosis, but is difficult to identify antemortem and remains an unknown contributor to disease progression. Carbonylation is a quantitative measure of protein oxidation.

Tracking Tumor Evolution in Glioma through Liquid Biopsies of Cerebrospinal Fluid
Diffuse gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumours in adults and include glioblastomas and World Health Organization (WHO) grade II and grade III tumours (sometimes referred to as lower-grade gliomas).

A Case of Cerebrospinal Fluid Rhinorrhoea: A Surgical Challenge [PDF]
CEREBROSPINAL FLUID rhinorrhoea is defined as the leakage of CEREBROSPINAL FLUID through the nose due to communication between nasal cavity and Sub–arachnoid space. It occurs due to breach in 4 layers–mucosa of the nose and PNS, skull base, Duramater,

Alzheimer Disease Detection from Raman Spectroscopy of the Cerebrospinal Fluid via Topological Machine Learning [PDF]
The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 19 subjects who received a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) as well as of 5 pathological controls have been collected and analysed by Raman spectroscopy (RS). We investigated whether the raw and preprocessed Raman spectra could be used to distinguish AD from controls.

Application of MGMT Promoter Methylation of Cerebrospinal Fluid in Diagnosis of Glioma
Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase(MGMT) promoter methylation between peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid in the initial diagnosis of glioma patients. Methods We collected the tumor tissues,
