Neuroanatomy - Meninges
11 important questions on Neuroanatomy - Meninges
The CNS is wrapped in meninges (connective tissue sheets), how many and what are their names?
The dura mater, follows the contours of the bony surround and is very hard and stiff.
The arachnoid membrane, which is very soft.
The pia mater, which follows the contours of the CNS and is also very soft.
How are the arachnoidea and pia mater together called?
Which spaces are between the mininges? (meningual spaces)
- Epidural space between the bone and dura mater. This space is virtual, but can become real under extreme circumstances (lesion)
- Subdural space between the dura mater and arachnoid membrane. This space is virtual
- Subarachnoid space (present all the time) between the arachnoid space and the pia mater. Blood vessels are located in this space
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
What is the function of the subarachnoid space
What keeps the spinal cord in the middle of the spinal cavity?
Inside the skull, the dura mater consists of two layers, which two?
2. Meningeal layer - dura mater proper
What are dural duplicatures?
Which dural duplicatures excist?
2. Tentorium cerebelli - between the cerebrum and cerebellum. Prevents the cerebrum to lower
What are the three levels/floors of the skull?
Middle cranial fossae
Posterior cranial fossae
Inside the dural duplicatures are venous collectors located, how are they named?
Which big sinuses excist?
The blood in the inferior and superior sagittal sinus flows to the confluence sinuum (junction between inferior and superior). From their, the blood flows in one of the two transverse sinuses. From the transverse sinus it flows into the sigmoid sinus and then into the jugular vein.
So, there are two transverse, sigmoid sinuses and two jugular veins.
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
