What else can I help you with?
Term used to describe the amount of pressure inside the skull?
Intracranial pressure.
What modern medical device has been used to see inside the skulls?
Generally, MRI's are used to "see" inside the skull. There are many other devices that measure things in the skull like intracranial pressure but to "see" inside the skull is something only an MRI can accomplish (without killing someone and cracking their skull open of course).
Describe some personal tests that are not safe for you?
The first unsafe personal test that comes to mind is the skull pressure test. For this test you measure the pressure your skull can take before crushing. In this test you would lay the back of your head on a hard bench, and put weight on the front of your head. Then slowly increase the weight until your skull crushes. This will tell you how much pressure your skull may take. This test may be dangerous as often your brain is inside your skull. At times a skull crushed by severe weights also crushes your brain, and thus kills you. However on the basis of your question you may not find this test dangerous as it appears you have no brain at all.
Is the brain on the inside of the skull or outsid?
The brain is on the inside the skull.
Where is your brain?
If you are a human, then your brain is inside your cranium, or skull.
Why in some cases of meningitis is it impossible to examine the CSF?
In rare instances, CSF from a lumbar puncture cannot be examined because the amount of swelling within the skull is so great that the pressure within the skull (intracranial pressure) is extremely high.
What does the medical abbreviation ICP mean?
ICP is an abbreviation for the term intracranial pressure meaning pressure within the cranial cavity (the skull).Another Answer:The intracranial pressure, or ICP, is the pressure inside the skull. This is one of the medical terms heard often in the treatment of patients with head trauma. Because the space inside the bony skull is fixed, any increase in mass within the skull will increase this pressure. This can be due to several things including a mass inside the head (such as a brain tumor or a hemorrhage/hematoma), swelling of the brain due to traumatic injury or infarction, and hydrocephalus. Generally, as the pressure increases the brain does not function as well, leading to neurological symptoms. Very high intracranial pressures can cause coma or death. Patients with disorders that lead to high pressure are often monitored with some form of intracranial pressure monitor, such as a ventriculostomy, to record the pressure. Several treatments can be then used to help lower the pressure to protect the brain.
Is their spikes on the inside of the human skull?
No, there are no spikes on the inside of the human skull. The skull is made up of bones that protect the brain, and it is smooth on the inside to provide a surface for the brain to rest against.
What animal brain is smaller then its skull?
all of them, the brain is inside the skull
Is it possible for the brain to be too big for the skull?
Yes, it is possible for the brain to be too big for the skull, which can lead to a condition called hydrocephalus where there is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. This can cause increased pressure inside the skull and potentially lead to serious health issues.
What liquid provides cushioning inside the head?
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) provides cushioning and protection for the brain inside the skull. It also helps to regulate the pressure around the brain and spinal cord.
What procedure is used to relieve the rapidly increasing intracranial pressure within his skull?
A common procedure used to relieve rapidly increasing intracranial pressure is a surgical intervention called a decompressive craniectomy. This involves removing part of the skull to allow the brain to expand without being compressed, reducing the pressure inside the skull. It is often used in cases of severe traumatic brain injury or conditions like hemorrhagic stroke.
