Diagnosis of infections of the central nervous system is<br />

accomplished by demonstrating the presence of intrathecally-produced<br />

specific antibody. Interpretation of<br />

results may be complicated by low antibody levels found in<br />

CSF, passive transfer of antibody from blood, and contamination<br />

via bloody taps. The interpretation of CSF results<br />

must consider CSF-serum antibody ratios to the infectious<br />

agent.<br />
