These are imaging terms that radiologists use to describe a picture.
Inhomogeneous means that the whole mass does not look the same; the best I can describe is that it looks speckled. For example, a cyst that is filled with fluid will be homogeneous. Every part of what's inside the cyst will look identical, because it's just fluid in there. If the mass is made of different parts, of different densities, then it will appear inhomogenous, or heterogenous, on imaging.
Enhancing means that the mass brightens up with contrast, meaning that there is a lot of blood vessels feeding the mass. (this can sometimes be seen with cancer)
What else can I help you with?
What has the highest brain to body mass ratio?
The ant has a brain to body mass ratio of 1:7.
Is brain mass muscle?
Brain is made of nervous tissue, not muscle.
What is the main ingredient in Alpha Brain and how does it contribute to its cognitive-enhancing effects?
The main ingredient in Alpha Brain is a compound called Alpha-GPC, which is a choline source that helps increase levels of acetylcholine in the brain. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in memory, learning, and cognitive function, so by boosting its levels, Alpha-GPC can contribute to the cognitive-enhancing effects of Alpha Brain.
What topic can be made from educational empowerment through the mass media?
The contribution of television in enhancing education.
What does a non enhancing mass mean?
A non-enhancing mass typically refers to a lesion or abnormal tissue growth that does not show increased contrast uptake on imaging studies like MRI or CT scans. This can indicate a benign or stable condition, but further evaluation and monitoring may be needed to confirm the nature of the mass.
What is a mass of nerve tissue that receives and sends nerve impulses?
Neuron
What is the mass of nervous tissue that is located inside your skull?
The average mass of the brain is around 1.4 kilograms (about 3 pounds) in an adult human.
Do the cerebral hemispheres account for about 83 percent of total brain mass?
No, the cerebral hemispheres account for about 85-90% of the total brain mass. They are the largest part of the brain and are responsible for higher brain functions such as memory, reasoning, and emotions.
What is an underlying enhancing lesion or metastatic disease pertaining to a mri of the brain?
A MRI of the brain is used to find these conditions. You will not know the underlying issue until the procedure is completed and reviewed.
What topic can be made from the theme Educational Empowerment through the Mass Media?
The contribution of television in enhancing education.
What is a heterogeneous enhancing mass?
A heterogeneous enhancing mass refers to an abnormal growth or lesion in the body that appears different in composition or density on imaging scans such as MRI or CT. The term "heterogeneous" indicates that the mass contains areas of varying densities or components, which can be indicative of different types of tissue or pathology within the mass. The "enhancing" aspect suggests that the mass is taking up contrast material more than surrounding tissues, often indicating increased vascularity or metabolic activity within the mass. Further evaluation and testing are typically needed to determine the nature and potential significance of a heterogeneous enhancing mass.
What percentage of total brain mass is the cerebellum?
10%
