    Glossary Cerebrospinal Fluid

    clear fluid cushioning brain and spinal cord

    Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless liquid that surrounds and cushions the brain and spinal cord, providing mechanical protection and maintaining a stable environment for the central nervous system. It also plays a role in removing waste products from the brain and distributing nutrients and hormones.
