Fluid found within the cells is called intracellular fluid (ICF) and that found outside cells is called extracellular fluid (ECF). The extracellular fluid is further divided into that which is found as blood plasma within blood vessels, and that which is found in the microscopic spaced between cells called interstitial fluid.
Approximately 2/3 of body fluid is intracellular and 1/3 is extracellular. Of the ECF approximately 80% is interstitial fluid and 20% is blood plasma
