Coverings and Fluids of the Brain
We also need to know the coverings & fluids of the brain, because of their critical role in clinical medicine and maintaining homeostasis:
- Summarize the anatomy of the meninges.
- Describe the formation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and explain how it is stored and circulated in the CNS.
- Explain the anterior and posterior circulation of the brain
- Illustrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB).
- Summarize the venous drainage of the brain.
