frontal atrophy refers to neuronal degeneration of the frontal lobes of the brain (e.g., can occur in head injuries or degenerative diseases like alzheimer's)
Yes, the frontal bones contain the frontal sinuses.
Frontal lobotomy is surgical incision into the frontal lobe of the brain.
The front part of the skull (frontal bone) is the bone that is connected by the frontal suture.
Frontal Region of the head includes the forehead and the area above the eyes
Muscle atrophy can affect any muscle within the body. Atrophy is a wasting or decrease in size of a body organ, tissue, or part owing to disease, injury, or lack of use. Any muscle is subject to atrophy from either lack of use or disease. This is especially true after injury or extended bedrest. To answer your question there are no two prominent muscles that are exclusively affected in muscle atrophy.
Mild frontoparietal cortical atrophy is a condition characterized by shrinking of the frontal and parietal lobes of the brain. This can lead to symptoms such as difficulty with memory, problem-solving, and other cognitive functions. It is often associated with aging or neurodegenerative disorders.
Mild bi frontal cortical atrophy refers to a condition where there is a slight loss of brain tissue in the frontal lobes of the brain. This can sometimes be seen on brain imaging studies and is often associated with aging or certain medical conditions. Symptoms can vary but may include mild cognitive changes or behavioral issues.
The prominence of the frontal sulci refers to the visible or distinguishable depth and definition of the grooves or furrows on the frontal lobes of the brain. Changes in the prominence of these sulci can sometimes indicate brain atrophy, aging, or certain neurological conditions. Evaluation of the frontal sulci can be part of a neuroimaging assessment to help detect abnormalities in the brain structure.
It is characterized by atrophy of the tissues in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain and by the presence of aggregated tau protein that accumulates in Pick bodies in the neurons of the affected regions
Atrophy occurs when a muscle loses its mass and strength. This is caused by inactivity in the muscle, which causes the body to restrict blood flow to it to allow blood to be used more efficiently elsewhere. And since the muscle isn't being exercised either, it is not tearing and regrowing, and it begins to shrivel up onto itself.
She has a muscular atrophy.
Break it down into less intimidating portions: Frontal cortical- front half of the brain Sylvan fissures- these particular "wrinkles" in the brain seperates the frontal and temporal lobes Effectively the front portion of the brain is wasting away and there is an uneveness in the brain in the area that seperates the front and back portions. Best of luck for you and yours. That's a fairly rough Dx.
There are no perfect rhymes for the word atrophy.
atrophy of the pancreas
Diffuse global atrophy, or diffuse brain atrophy, is when the brain shrinks in size. It's more severe than the atrophy that occurs normally with aging.
Atrophy is the deterioration of muscle. An example of atrophy in a sentence would be "Due to Samantha's leg injury, and her inability to bear weight, the physical therapist noticed signs of atrophy."
Atrophy - band - was created in 1986.
