The posterior fat pad is normally pressed in the olecranon fossa by the triceps tendon, and hence invisible on lateral radiograph of the elbow. [3] When there is a fracture of the distal humerus, or other pathology involving the elbow joint, inflammation develops around the synovial membrane forcing the fat pad out of its normal physiologic resting place.
Cholinergic neurons throughout the GPs project to all areas of the heart, [2] The GP are embedded in the epicardial fat pads, consisting of only a few neurons or as many as 400 neurons. [1] Post ganglionic neurons from the vagal nerve pathways are components of the Ligament of Marshall, forming part of the "intrinsic" heart nervous system. [3]
A fat pad sign is an elevation of the anterior and posterior fat pads of the elbow joint, and suggests the presence of an occult fracture. Buccal fat pad can be seen in nursing babies. [1] The fat pad of the labia majora, which can be used as a graft, often as a so-called "Martius labial fat pad graft", which can be used, for example, in ...
The word corona is a Latin word meaning "crown", from the Ancient Greek κορώνη (korōnè, "garland, wreath"). It was applied to the coronary arteries because of a notional resemblance (compare the photos). The word arterie in Anglo-French (artaire in Old French, and artērium in Latin) means "windpipe" and "an artery". It was applied to ...
Fat has increased intensity in T1-weighted images. However, it may be difficult to differentiate intramyocardial fat and the epicardial fat that is commonly seen adjacent to the normal heart. Also, the sub-tricuspid region may be difficult to distinguish from the atrioventricular sulcus, which is rich in fat.
Coronary artery disease (CAD), also called coronary heart disease (CHD), or ischemic heart disease (IHD), [13] is a type of heart disease involving the reduction of blood flow to the cardiac muscle due to a build-up of atheromatous plaque in the arteries of the heart.
Rob Manfred would like to see teams share their TV revenues and would welcome a salary cap, but won't drop any demands in their next CBA agreement.
Coronary vessel branches that remain on the surface of the heart and follow the sulci of the heart are called epicardial coronary arteries. [1] The left coronary artery distributes blood to the left side of the heart, the left atrium and ventricle, and the interventricular septum.
