Denied
The Board denied service connection for liver lesions, headaches, cerebral spinal fluid leak (claimed as neurological dysfunction), and an acquired psychiatric disorder based on the evidence not supporting a nexus between these conditions and the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not support a finding that the Veteran's current disabilities are related to his in-service exposure or any other incident during active service.
