Description Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced by ultra filtration and active secretion from the
choroid plexus in the ventricles of the brain. From the ventricles, CSF may either enter the subarachnoid space or the central canal of the spinal cord. Thus many neurological diseases like intracranial diseases and compressive spinal cord diseases have impact on physico-chemical properties of CSF (Carakostas et al., 1983; Thompson et al., 1990). Thus CSF analysis in dogs can enable practitioners to improve their diagnostic
capabilities for neurological disorders, especially those produced by inflammatory, degenerative and neoplastic mechanisms of disease (Christman, 1992).
Therefore, the purpose of the study reported here was to determine various CSF parameters in 20 dogs with neurological disorders and to correlate the results with the radiographic findings.
