  2. CSF albumin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSF_albumin

    CSF albumin is a measurement used to determine the levels of albumin in cerebrospinal fluid. [1] A closely related test, CSF total protein is a measurement used to determine the levels of protein in cerebrospinal fluid. [2] [3] It combines the albumin, IgG, and other proteins. It can be useful in distinguishing among causes of Meningitis.

  3. CSF/serum albumin ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSF/serum_albumin_ratio

    CSF/serum albumin ratio is a test performed to compare the levels of albumin in the cerebrospinal fluid and the serum. It is useful as a measure of the integrity of the blood–brain barrier . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

  4. CSF tap test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSF_tap_test

    The CSF tap test, sometimes lumbar tap test or Miller Fisher Test, is a medical test that is used to decide whether shunting of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) would be helpful in a patient with suspected normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH).

  5. Comprehensive metabolic panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_metabolic_panel

    The comprehensive metabolic panel, or chemical screen (CMP; CPT code 80053), is a panel of 14 blood tests that serves as an initial broad medical screening tool. The CMP provides a rough check of kidney function, liver function, diabetic and parathyroid status, and electrolyte and fluid balance, but this type of screening has its limitations.

  6. Oligoclonal band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligoclonal_band

    Typically for an OCB analysis, the CSF is concentrated and the serum is diluted. After this dilution/concentration prealbumin appears as higher on CSF. Albumin is typically the dominant band on both fluids. Transferrin is another prominent protein on CSF column because its small molecular size easily increases its filtration in to CSF.

  7. Pandy's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandy's_test

    Pandy's test (or Pandy's reaction) is done on the CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) to detect the elevated levels of proteins (mainly globulins). This test is named after the Hungarian neurologist , Pándy Kálmán (1868–1945) who developed this test in the year 1910.

  8. Basic metabolic panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_metabolic_panel

    A basic metabolic panel (BMP) is a blood test consisting of a set of seven or eight biochemical tests and is one of the most common lab tests ordered by health care providers.
