✦ Synopsis
Radioimmunoassay determinations of the levels of total T3, total T4, TSH, and prolactin in the CSF were performed on samples taken from 36 healthy individuals. The obtained reference values are the first of their kind. It is considered that RIA determinations of CSF hormone levels may provide a sensitive method for demonstrating pathological leakage through the blood-brain and brain-CSF barriers.
