Acrania is one of the most common neural tube defects. Acrania is defined as the absence of the cranial vault above the bony orbits. It can be further divided into two main subtypes depending on the amount of cerebral tissue present, anencephaly and exencephaly.  Anencephaly is a type of neural tube defect  considered when there are no cerebral hemispheres present, whereas exencephaly denotes a normal amount of cerebral tissue. Nonetheless, the cranium is absent, making this condition fatal. The sonographic appearance of anencephaly has been described as having “froglike” facies, or bulging eyes, and absence of the cranial vault  If the babies are born alive, they usually live just a few hours or days #sonography #radiology Radiant Group of Hospitals

Canadian Development of Digital Glaucoma Simulation Platforms 👁 🔬 Diving Deep into the Glaucomatous Eye: A ground-breaking online simulator emerges from the labs of the University of Toronto. Spearheaded by Professor W. Wong and Ph.D. student Yan Li, this state-of-the-art tool paints a vivid portrait of life with glaucoma, letting users step into the shoes of those battling this blindness-causing eye condition.

#anatomy #geometry  #medicine #medicalscience Cast of the right #lung demonstrates branching of airways. The #branching #airways can be modeled by use of the principles of fractal #geometry, which allow for efficient filling of the thoracic space. The branching pattern of the first 15 divisions of the airways follows the principles of fractal geometry: The reduction of airway diameter and length between each generation is similar, by a factor of 0.79, serving to densely compact the airways into the available space of the thorax . This geometry reduces bronchial path length from the trachea to the periphery and minimizes both dead space volume and resistance to convective airflow.

SpaceBike: Discipline and Motivation The idea of the SpaceBike project was to identify changes in human locomotion due to a prolonged time of inactivity and/or immobilization as it for example occurs during human spaceflight. Or after surgery. Immobilization is going along with severe changes in muscle structure and function but most likely also changes in brain physiology, especially within the motor cortex. What is necessary to maintain locomotor function during deep space exploration in order to guarantee safety and success for space missions? What is necessary to remodulate locomotor function in patients suffer from brain damage to guarantee a self-determined and independent life after brain damage? Our first Data of the BRACE 60-days head down tilt bedrest study @MEDES, present at the #ISGP conference last week in Dubai, show that a regular daily exercise regimen across three weeks already provokes neuromuscular adaptation resulting in a more efficient and smoother movement. This adaptation is supported by the application of artificial gravity, most likely caused by a reduction in intracranial pressure supporting neuroplasticity. Actually, this is not necessarily surprising, but for the first time identifies the time course of neuromodulation: What we need to maintain our functional capacities – on a central as well as on a peripheral level – is discipline and motivation to keep up exercise protocols over a longer time frame. The benefit is tremendous: Health! #BRACE #MEDES #ESA #DLR #Brain #DSHS #ISGP

When it comes to ultrasound imaging, thoroughness is key! One strategy of mine is sweeping through specific sections before taking images to ensure a comprehensive assessment. Here's an example of my sweep through the fetal brain-posterior fossa, lateral ventricles, nose/lips, palate, mandible, orbits/lens, and uvula. What are your ultrasound strategies?

#HeartAuscultationAreas 🫀👂 1. **Aortic Area:** - Located on the right side of the sternum at the 2nd intercostal space. 2. **Pulmonic Area:** - Positioned on the left side of the sternum at the 2nd intercostal space. 3. **Erb’s Point:** - Found on the left side of the sternum at the 3rd intercostal space. 4. **Tricuspid Area:** - Situated on the left side of the sternum at the 4th intercostal space. 5. **Mitral Area:** - Located on the left side of the sternum at the 5th intercostal space along the midclavicular line. These specific areas are crucial for precise localization of heart sounds during auscultation. 🩺💓 #Cardiology #ClinicalSkills
