Excerpt from International Clinics, Vol. 2: A Quarterly of Illustrated Clinical Lectures and Especially Prepared Original Articles; Twenty-Fifth Series, 1915
The trend of modern medicine is to utilize every available means for clearing up the Obscure conditions which baffle the diagnostic skill of the physician. Our attention is now being directed to the examination of the cerebrospinal fluid. The value of this examina tion as a differential diagnostic agent in many Obscure neurologic and psychologic disturbances is steadily growing in importance.
N 0 direct analysis can be made in nervous and mental diseases, so our efforts must be expended in searching the secretions of the body for evidences of the products which attend pathologic alterations of the nervous tissue, particularly the brain. Our first efforts re sulted in failure, because the search was made of the blood, urine, and faeces, which represent the sum total of all of the metabolic products of the body. Nervous tissue comprises only about two per cent. Of the total body, hence one can readily understand why such a small amount of products escapes detection. Examination of the cerebrospinal fluid has been more promising, and at the present time this examination is considered necessary as an aid in diagnosis in all Obscure nervous conditions. The cerebrospinal fluid comes into more intimate relation with nervous tissue than the other secretions, so should contain the products of metabolism of nervous tissue in more concentrated and in least altered form.
