Metals perform many important physiological functions in the human body. The distribution of elements in different tissues is not uniform. Moreover, some structures can be the site of an accumulation of essential or toxic metals, leading to multi ...

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a small vessel disease, causing spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the elderly. It is strongly associated with Alzheimer disease (AD), as most CAA patients show deposition of Aβ—i.e.

Visualization of the tentorial innervation of human dura mater [PDF]
AbstractPosterior projections of the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve (the ophthalmic nerve) are distributed in the tentorium cerebelli as recurrent meningeal branches. We investigated the morphological tentorial distribution of the ophthalmic nerve.

The Strain Rates in the Brain, Brainstem, Dura, and Skull under Dynamic Loadings
Knowing the precise material properties of intracranial head organs is crucial for studying the biomechanics of head injury. It has been shown that these biological tissues are significantly rate-dependent; hence, their material properties should be ...

Biomechanics of vascular areas of the human cranial dura mater
Accurate biomechanical properties of the human cranial dura mater are paramount for computational head models, artificial graft developments and biomechanical basic research. Yet, it is unclear whether areas of the dura containing meningeal vessels biomechanically differ from avascular areas. Here, 244 dura mater samples with or without vessels from 32

Large-scale morphometry of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve
Background The meninges, formed by dura, arachnoid and pia mater, cover the central nervous system and provide important barrier functions. Located between arachnoid and pia mater, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-filled subarachnoid space (SAS) features a ...

Objective The dural sealant patch (DSP) is designed for watertight dural closure after cranial surgery. The goal of this study is to assess, for the first time, safety and performance of the DSP as a means of reducing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage in
