H D Portnoy et al. Surg Neurol. 1976 May.

A method for measuring the formation and absorption rates of cerebrospinal fluid is described which can be carried out relatively rapidly and with a minimum of expensive apparatus. It has been found particularly useful in the evaluation of patients with hydrocephalus.
