Meninges
CT layers around CNS
- Dura mater (only one on sheep brain)
- Arachnoid
- Pia mater
Epidural space
Potential space (nothing there) located ABOVE the dura mater
Subdural space
Empty space between dura mater and arachnoid
Dura mater and arachnoid
Located in deep folds only
Subarachnoid space
Spinal fluid, located under arachnoid layer
Pia mater
Goes into small folds/pockets
