Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a specialized fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord within the central nervous system (CNS). While CSF is similar in composition to extracellular fluid (ECF), it has unique functions such as providing cushioning to protect the brain, removing waste products, and regulating the chemical environment of the CNS. So, although there are similarities between CSF and ECF, they serve different purposes within the body.
