Studying structure without function makes neuroanatomy difficult to retain. Connecting anatomical pathways to clinical deficits makes learning more intuitive.
CSF cushions the brain, provides buoyancy, and removes metabolic waste. It is produced by the choroid plexus within four interconnected cavities: the two lateral ventricles, the third ventricle, and the fourth ventricle. CSF flows through these ventricles, enters the subarachnoid space, and is reabsorbed into the venous system through arachnoid granulations.
