What are interconnecting cavities of the brain filled with CSF?
ventricles
What do the ventricles of the brain do?
They contain cerebral spinal fluid (CSF)
What is the chamber containing csf in the brain called?
Enlarged chambers in the brain containing cerebrospinal fluid is called ventriculomegaly. If caused by increased CSF or increased CSF pressure, it is called hydrocephalus.They are called as ventricles. You have two lateral ventricles, one third ventricle and one forth ventricle.
What can scarring of the meninges from meningitis cause?
Scarring of the meninges may result in obstruction of the normal flow of CSF, causing abnormal accumulation of CSF.
How and where is the CSF formed?
Most of the CSF is formed by the choroid plexuses in the ventricles of the brain. Some is also produced by ependymal cells.
What fluid is found in the ventricles of the brain?
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is found in the ventricles of the brain.
How is the brain procted by fluid?
The brain is protected by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It flows through the ventricles in the brain and between the meninges, the layers of tissue between the brain and the skull. CSF supports and cushions the brain from blows.
What is produced by the ventricles and baths the brain and spinal cord?
Cerebral spinal fluid, or CSF.
Where is the CSF formed?
CSF, otherwise known as cerebrospinal fluid is a colorless liquid which fills and surrounds the brain and spinal cord, creating a protective barrier. It originates in the ventricles of the brain.
What in the gray commissure of the spinal cord contains csf and is continuous with the ventricles of the brain?
the central canal
Does the third ventricle in brain contain CSF?
The third ventricle, like all ventricles of the brain, contains cerebral spinal fluid.
Where does CSF circulate and where is it returned to the blood?
CSF is cerebrospinal fluid . It is a colorless fluid found in the brain and spine. It is formed in the lateral ventricles from where it circulates through the interventricular foramens into the third ventricle and finally into the fourth ventricle.
