Primary care physicians frequently perform lumbar puncture, because cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is an invaluable diagnostic window to the central nervous system (CNS). Commonly performed tests on CSF include protein and glucose levels, cell counts and differential, microscopic examination, and culture. Additional tests such as opening pressure, 'SUPERNATANT COLOR', latex agglutination, and polymerase chain reaction also may be performed. Knowing which tests to order and how to interpret them allows physicians to use CSF as a key diagnostic tool in a variety of diseases.
