What does this test VDRL Test CSF identify?

VDRL Test CSF

The VDRL test in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a diagnostic test used to identify the presence of syphilis infection in the central nervous system. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum, which can affect various organs including the brain and spinal cord.

CSF is the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, and testing for syphilis in this fluid can help diagnose neurosyphilis, a form of the infection that affects the central nervous system. The VDRL test in CSF looks for specific antibodies produced by the body in response to the syphilis infection.

Positive results of the VDRL test in CSF indicate the presence of syphilis infection in the central nervous system, while negative results suggest the absence of infection. It is important to perform this test in cases where neurosyphilis is suspected, as early diagnosis and treatment can prevent serious complications.
