When Brain Health Concerns Arise: Your Path to Clarity Starts Here
That persistent headache that won’t go away, the unexplained fever, or sudden confusion – these symptoms can be frightening when they point to potential brain or spinal cord infections. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the anxiety that comes with neurological symptoms, which is why our Aerobic CSF Culture Test provides the definitive answers you need for peace of mind and proper treatment.
Understanding Your Aerobic CSF Culture Test
This specialised test examines your cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) – the protective liquid surrounding your brain and spinal cord – for bacterial infections. Using advanced laboratory techniques, we culture your sample to identify any harmful bacteria that could be causing inflammation or infection in your central nervous system. The test includes antibiotic sensitivity analysis when bacteria are detected, helping your doctor choose the most effective treatment.
