They protect the brain. The strong, outermost layer is named the dura mater. The middle layer, the arachnoid mater, is a thin membrane made of blood vessels and elastic tissue. It covers the ...

The brain is our most energy-hungry and metabolically active organ. It is responsible for our thoughts, ideas, movement and ability to learn. Our brain is powered by 600 km of blood vessels that bring ...

“To better understand the anatomy of the brain ... Tightly packed endothelial cells lining the inside of the brain’s blood vessels work as a filter to keep harmful things out and hold helpful ...

It seemed that the lymphatic vessels extended to the brain after all. This was surprising, to say the least: In the 21st century, major findings involving basic human anatomy are rare.

In this study, researchers isolated blood vessels from human early developing brains, adult brains, brain tumors and brain vascular malformations. They found that endothelial cells, which line the ...

Louis report they have found a way around that problem by targeting the network of vessels that drain waste from the brain. Their study results indicated that rejuvenating those vessels improves ...

Researchers have developed a bubble microrobot capable of being guided around the tiny complex blood vessels of the brain using ultrasound. Successfully tested in mice, the ‘microvehicle ...

In patients with brain fog, MRI scans revealed signs of damaged blood vessels in their brains, researchers reported February 22 in Nature Neuroscience. In these people, dye injected into the ...

The novel method they created combines advanced imaging techniques and AI algorithms to track changes in the dynamics and anatomy of the blood vessels of the brain. The researchers used the method ...
