The Corneal Dystrophy Foundation’s Post

Understanding Fuchs' Dystrophy: A Common Corneal Condition 🌐 Fuchs' dystrophy is a prevalent type of corneal dystrophy that specifically affects the innermost layer of the cornea, known as the endothelium. This condition is characterized by the gradual accumulation of fluid in the cornea. Over time, this leads to swelling and clouding of the cornea, impairing vision. One of the key challenges with Fuchs' dystrophy is its subtle onset. Often, the changes in the cornea develop slowly and may not be immediately noticeable. However, as the condition progresses, it can significantly impact vision clarity. #eyerepair #eyerestoration #eyetreatmentoptions #eyehealthawareness #eyehealthmatters #eyeconditionsupport #eyeconditionawareness #eyeconditioneducation

The traditional approach to opening the Sylvian fissure involves splitting the anterior limb. But which part of the fissure is contained within the anterior limb? And which segments of the middle cerebral artery are revealed during this process? Find the answers and explore more advanced techniques from the Neurosurgical Atlas.

Main Sulci of the cerebral hemispheres. 1-Central Sulcus. 2-Lateral Sulcus. 3-Parieto -occipital Sulcus. 1-Central Sulcus(Fissure of Ronaldo). The central Sulcus is characterised by the following: a. It's a continuous non interrupted Sulcus on the superolateral surface. b.It lies nearly midway between the frontal and occipital poles. c.It reaches the medial surface of the cerebral hemispheres. d.It ends downwards a short distance above posterior ramus of the lateral Sulcus. e.On the medial surface, it's upper end lies between two limbs of cingulate Sulcus. 2-Lateral Sulcus. The lateral Sulcus consists of three rami. a.Horizontal ramus(lies in the posterior part of the inferior frontal gyrus). b.Ascending ramus (lies in the posterior part of the inferior frontal gyrus). c.posterior ramus (lies obliquely on the superolateral surface). 3-Parieto -occipital Sulcus. -It is best identified on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere. - It's upper end appears on the posterior part of the superolateral surface.

https://lnkd.in/gNAu__NQ Anatomy Trains and the 14 meridians in TCM are essentially different interpretations of the same channels within the body. Both systems describe interconnected pathways that influence overall health—Anatomy Trains focuses on the physical connections through muscles and fascia, while the 14 meridians in TCM emphasize the flow of energy. These are not separate systems but rather different perspectives on the same underlying channels. Whether viewed through the lens of biomechanics or energy flow, both approaches reveal the deep interconnection that governs our physical, emotional, and energetic well-being.

👨🏻⚕️ The cerebral cortex, a marvel in its own right, is a complex structure housing intricate functions distributed across five distinct lobes within each cerebral hemisphere. Let's navigate this fascinating terrain to understand the specialised roles each lobe plays in shaping our cognitive experience. 🧠 At the forefront stands the frontal lobe, commanding executive decision-making processes that govern our critical cognitive functions. Transitioning to the parietal lobe, its meticulous work involves processing sensory information related to touch, pain, temperature, and smell. 🖐️👃 Moving deeper, the temporal lobe emerges as a powerhouse, handling sensory data from smell, taste, and sound, while also contributing significantly to the intricate process of memory. Meanwhile, the occipital lobe takes on the crucial task of deciphering visual field information with remarkable precision. 🔬 Lastly, the enigmatic insula lobe, nestled within the cerebral cortex, orchestrates diverse functions, from regulating risk-reward phenomena to maintaining autonomic balance and overseeing various sensory pathways. 🏥 Stay tuned on this cerebral exploration as we unravel the wonders of the brain's intricate architecture and uncover the depths of its functionality. 👨🏻⚕️✨ #cerebral #cortex #cerebralcortex #drsiddharthgautam #neurosurgeryconnect #mumbai
