Quiz 1 Anatomy Slide 33-36 &39-43 Flashcards
The brain is covered by 3 meninges ?
1) pia mater
2) arachnoid mater
3) dura mater
Pia mater is ββ- membrane adherent to βββ& dips ββ ?
Delicate
To brain & dips into sulci
Blood vessels invaginate the pia mater these vascular tufts are called ?
Choroid plexus
βββββ secrete the CSF into the ventricles
Choroid plexus
Choroid plexus covering the pia are called ββ-?
Tela choroidea
Thin membrane covers pia mater ?
Arachnoid mater
Space between pia & arachnoid mater is ?
Subarachnoid space
Subarachnoid space contain (2) ?

Subarachnoid cisterns
Mention the 9 cisterns in Subarachnoid space ?
1- cerebello-medullary cistern ( magna )
2- pontine (pontomedullary ) cistern
3- interpeduncular cistern
4- chiasmatic cistern
5- callosal ( interhemispheric ) cistern

8- cisterna vermis
9- cistern lamina terminalis
Cerebella-medullary cistern is the βββ- & lies in between βββ
Largest
Between medulla & cerbellum
Cerebella-medullary cistern connects βββββ BY βββ
