52
innervation of dura mater
53
dural sinuses
dura mater is composed of two layers that separate in the region of a venous sinus into an outer periosteal layer, which lines the calvarium and an inner meningeal layer, which forms the unattached boundaries of the sinus. in the region of a sinus two meningeal dural layers come together after forming the sinus to creat a septa or dural fold upper group of dural sinuses - supperior sagittal sinus, inferior sagittal sinus, straight sinus, confluence of the sinuses, transverese sinus, sigmoid sinus lower group of dural sinuses - cavernous sinus, anterior intercavrnoud sinus, posterior intercavernous sinus, sphernoparietal sinus, superior petrosal sinus, inferior petrosal sinus the right an left cavrnous sinuses connect via the intercavernous sinuses that pass around the hypophysis, which sits in the hypophyseal fossa after invaginating the diaphragma sellae. Coronal section cuts through internal carotid artery twice due to 18- degree syphon
54
central and peripheral nervous systems
CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, which constitute a functional unit PNS consists of the nerves emerging from the brain and spinal cord
55
Neurons
the nervous system is composed of neurons and supporting neuroglial cells, which vastly outnumber them each neuron contains a body with one axon and one or more dentrites (receptor segments). The release of neurotransmitters at synapses creates an excitatory or inhibitory postsynaptic potential at the target neuron. If the depolarization threshold of the neuron is exceeded it fires. Certain gligal cells with lipid-rich membranes may myelinate axons. Myelination electrically insulates axons, thereby increasing impulse conduction speed. In the CNS one oligodendrocyte myelinates one intermode on multiple axons, in the PNS one Schwann cell
56
Gray and white matter in the CNS
nerve cell bodies appear gray in cross inspection, whereas nerve cell processes and their insulating myelin sheats appear white

69
circulation of cerebrospinal fluid
the brain and spinal cord are suspended in the choroid plexus, CSF occupies the subarachnoid space and ventricles of the brain and drains through the arachnoid granulations into the dural venous system of the cranial cavity. Smaller amounts drain along proximal portions of the spial nerves into venous plexuses or lymphatic pathways
