  2. Horizontal fissure of cerebellum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_fissure_of...

    The largest and deepest fissure in the cerebellum is named the horizontal fissure (or horizontal sulcus). It commences in front of the pons , and passes horizontally around the free margin of the hemisphere to the middle line behind, and divides the cerebellum into an upper and a lower portion.

  3. Sulcus (morphology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulcus_(morphology)

    Broca's fissure: found in the third left frontal fold of the brain. Burdach's fissure: connects the brain's insula and the inner surface of the operculum. Calcarine sulcus or Calcerine fissure: extends from the occipital of the cerebrum to the occipital fissure. Callosomarginal fissure: found in the medial surface of the cerebrum.

  4. Chest radiograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chest_radiograph

    A radiation source is positioned behind the patient at a standard distance (most often 6 feet, 1,8m), and the x-ray beam is fired toward the patient. In anteroposterior (AP) views, the positions of the x-ray source and detector are reversed: the x-ray beam enters through the anterior aspect and exits through the posterior aspect of the chest ...

  5. Anatomy of the cerebellum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomy_of_the_cerebellum

    The human cerebellum is located at the base of the brain, with the large mass of the cerebrum above it, and the portion of the brainstem called the pons in front of it. It is separated from the overlying cerebrum by a layer of tough dura mater called the cerebellar tentorium; all of its connections with other parts of the brain travel through the pons.

  6. Cerebellopontine angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_angle

    The cerebellopontine angle is formed by the cerebellopontine fissure. This fissure is made when the cerebellum folds over to the pons, creating a sharply defined angle between them. [ 1 ] The angle formed in turn creates a subarachnoid cistern, the cerebellopontine angle cistern.

  7. Radiographic anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiographic_anatomy

    Human chest radiographic anatomy. Radioanatomy ( x-ray anatomy ) is an anatomy discipline that involves studying anatomy through the use of radiographic films . [ 3 ] The x-ray film represents a two-dimensional image of a three-dimensional object due to the summary projection of different anatomical structures onto a planar surface.

  8. Cerebellar hemisphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellar_hemisphere

    The cerebellum consists of three parts, a median and two lateral, which are continuous with each other, and are substantially the same in structure. The median portion is constricted, and is called the vermis, from its annulated appearance which it owes to the transverse ridges and furrows upon it; the lateral expanded portions are named the hemispheres.

  9. Transient tachypnea of the newborn - Wikipedia

    The chest x-ray shows hyperinflation of the lungs including prominent pulmonary vascular markings, flattening of the diaphragm, and fluid in the horizontal fissure of the right lung. Signs and symptoms
