The ventricular system is a set of four structures the ventricles containing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain. It is continuous with the central canal of spinal cord. The ventricle lining consists of an epithelium-like membrane called ependyma. The ventricles are interconnected allowing the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. CSF is produced by the ependymal cells in the choroid plexus a network of these cells within each of the ventricles.
