The pia mater expands between the nerve roots to form the denticulate ligaments, which connect to the dura mater to suspend the spinal cord in the spinal canal. What are the spinal cord tracts?
Researchers at the École Polytechnique Fédérale, in Lausanne, Switzerland, to design a soft, flexible electronic implant, which they say has the same ability to bend and stretch as dura mater, the ...
An easy-does-it implant Flexible and stretchy, the implant developed at EPFL is placed beneath the dura mater, directly onto the spinal cord.
“Our e-Dura implant can remain for a long period of time on the spinal cord or the cortex, precisely because it has the same mechanical properties as the dura mater itself.
The meninges consist of the dura mater (external layer), arachnoid mater (middle layer) and pia mater (internal layer). The cerebrospinal fluid circulates in the subarachnoid space, which is between ...
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) surrounds and protects your brain and spinal cord. It’s held in place by a layer called the dura mater. A hole or a tear in the dura mater can lead to a CSF leak.
It's known as the e-Dura, as it's designed to be implanted on the spinal cord or cortex, beneath the dura mater – that's the protective envelope that surrounds the nervous system.
Electronic dura mater implant or 'e-dura' can be inserted directly underneath protective membrane around spinal cord tissue ...
The e-Dura can stretch and bend, following the natural, limited moves of the spinal cord, without causing inflammation resulting from friction between the device and human tissue.
