Q

Applied anatomy CT

A
  1. Infection in CT is limited due to fibrous septa presence.
  2. Cut wound leads to severe bleeding due to rich blood supply and inability of arteries to contract due to its attachment to fibrous septa.

Q

Applied anatomy loose areolar tissue

A
  1. Loose areolar tissue is scalp dangerous area because infection can pass into cranial cavity via emissary veins present in it.
  2. Hemorrhage from emissary veins is large and separates scalp from skull bones.
