Find Clarity for Your Brain and Sinus Health Concerns
When persistent headaches, sinus pressure, or unusual neurological symptoms disrupt your life, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our CSF and Nasal Fluid Examination provides the answers you need to understand what’s happening inside your body and take the right steps toward better health.
Understanding Your CSF and Nasal Fluid Test
This comprehensive examination analyses cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from around your brain and spinal cord, along with nasal fluid, to detect infections, inflammation, and other conditions. Using advanced biochemistry and microscopy techniques, our specialists examine these crucial fluids for signs of meningitis, sinus infections, autoimmune conditions, and other health concerns that could be affecting your wellbeing.
The test involves collecting a small 2mL sample of CSF or nasal fluid in a sterile container, which is then carefully analysed in our accredited laboratory. No special preparation is required, making the process straightforward and convenient for you.
