Abstract
The growing need for lumbar puncture in order to obtain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for the diagnosis Alzheimer's disease is becoming increasingly apparent (Herskovits and Growdon, 2010). The concept of a CSF sampling unit specializing in lumbar puncture would seem the most plausible solution. Physicians and interns are not necessarily skilled in the procedure and neurologists perform lumbar puncture rarely.
