Spinal Tap Or Lumbar Spinal Puncture
In this type of testing, the doctors remove a small sample of fluid from the spinal canal of the patient and pass this sample on to the laboratory for further analysis. In laboratory analysis, the doctors look for the possibility of having abnormalities in the antibodies that have a link with the condition of multiple sclerosis. The spinal tap testing also helps in ruling out the condition associated with multiple sclerosis and the infections similar to multiple sclerosis.
