A fine brain, or a good mind. These terms are often used interchangeably, as if they stood for the same thing. Yet the brain is material substance—so many cells and fibers, a pulpy protoplasmic mass weighing some three pounds and shut away from the outside world in a casket of bone....
These comprise the gross anatomy of the brain and spinal cord (38 figures), the vascular supply (13 figures), the gross dissection of the brain (11 figures), sectional anatomy in the coronal, horizontal, and sagittal pl...
The Brain and Spinal Cord Robert Lewis Maynard, Noel Downes, in Anatomy and Histology of the Laboratory Rat in Toxicology and Biomedical Research, 2019 The Midbrain or Mesencephalon The midbrain comprises the tectum, tegmentum, the cerebral aqueduct and the cerebral peduncles, as well as several...
The brain and spinal cord comprise the: (a) central nervous system. (b) peripheral nervous system. (c) peripheral ganglia. (d) spinal nerves. The cerebrum makes up about 80% of the brain. What composes the other 20%? What are the two parts of the cen...
Davson (33) has described the concepts of the blood-brain barrier and the circulation of the CSF. The brain and spinal cord are surrounded by the CSF. In the interior of the brain the ventricular systems exist, containing the CSF, which connects to the external fluid by a hole in the ...
Peptides, Hormones, and the Brain and Spinal Cord Lee J.Martin, inEncyclopedia of the Human Brain, 2002 VBrain Peptides Provide a Biochemical Fingerprint for Many Brain Regions and Reveal New Features about the Parceling of the Brain
Conclusion: BSCI patients comprise a significant percentage of our KPC-KP population. Owing to repeated hospitalizations and prolonged colonization, they represent a substantial reservoir for these multidrug-resistant pathogens. Spinal Cord (2017) 55, 390–395; doi:10.1038/sc.2016.136; published online ...
Primary brain tumors begin in the brain cells. Meningiomas are the primary brain tumors that are the most common. More than 35% of primary brain tumors are meningiomas.? These tumors come from tissue that covers the brain and spinal cord. The next most common type of tumor in the brain is...
There are many types of brain tumors, which are classified according to the affected tissue. They include: Glioma– glia or neuroglia, a tissue that surrounds and supports the neurons or nerve cells of the brain. Meningioma– meninges or membrane enclosing the brain and spinal cord ...
comprise several templates and annotations that span multiple stages of development and remain connected by a common anatomical schema. Several developmental atlases have been published varying by imaging modality, accessibility, age ranges, labeled detail, and template specifications (Table1). The Allen ...
