Changes in CSF Flow and Extracellular Space in the Developing Rat

  • Chapter
Drugs and the Developing Brain

Part of the book series: Advances in Behavioral Biology ((ABBI,volume 8))

Abstract

The effect of bulk flow of cerebrospinal fluid on the distribution of substances in the central nervous system has been a problem appreciated especially by those who have attempted to quantify the interstitial volume of the brain. The implications of this so-called “CSF sink” effect, particularly with regard to the measurement of brain extracellular space, have been treated thoroughly in reviews by Davson (1965) and by Woodbury (1967).
