veins and sinusesThe image shown below is a magnetic resonance venogram (MRV), lateral view. Large draining superficial cerebral veins and the dural sinuses are easy to see. Take note of the labelled structures then answer the questions below. Questions Each question refers to a structure identified in the image above. Click on the pen and pencil icon to see the answer: Into
which structure does the bulk of cerebrospinal fluid enter? Into
which structure does practically all the blood from the brain drain? The
middle portion of the cerebral hemisphere drains via the superficial
middle cerebral vein into this structure. This
structure directly drains the thalamus and caudate nucleus. Most
deep cerebral veins ultimately flow into what structure? |
