The uncinate process can be attached to either the lateral nasal wall, on the lamina papyracea (50%), the anterior cranial fossa, on the ethmoidal roof (25%), or the middle concha (25%). The superior attachment of the uncinate process determines the drainage pattern of the frontal sinus.
[3] [13] Hence, 68 Ga-Trivehexin can be used for PET imaging of αvβ6-integrin positive cancers (i.e., those whose cells possess a sufficiently high density of αvβ6 on their surface), including but not limited to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, [14] non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of different origin (most ...
The uncinate fasciculus is a white matter association tract in the human brain that connects parts of the limbic system such as the temporal pole, anterior parahippocampus, and amygdala in the temporal lobe with inferior portions of the frontal lobe such as the orbitofrontal cortex.
Uncinate process of ethmoid bone, a process located in the nasal cavity; Uncinate process of vertebra, a hook-shaped process on the lateral borders (side edges) of the superior (top) surface of the vertebral bodies of the third to the seventh cervical vertebrae; Uncinate process of pancreas, a small projection from the pancreas
Below the bulla ethmoidalis and hidden by the uncinate process of the ethmoid is the opening of the maxillary sinus (ostium maxillare); an accessory opening is frequently present above the posterior part of the inferior nasal concha. The inferior meatus is the largest of the three. It lies below the inferior concha and above the nasal cavity.
The long thin posterior border of the crista galli serves for the attachment of the falx cerebri. On either side of the crista galli, the cribriform plate is narrow and deeply grooved. At the front part of the cribriform plate, on either side of the crista galli, is a small fissure that is occupied by a process of dura mater.
Association fibers are axons (nerve fibers) that connect cortical areas within the same cerebral hemisphere. [1]In human neuroanatomy, axons within the brain, can be categorized on the basis of their course and connections as association fibers, projection fibers, and commissural fibers. [1]
Uncinate, meaning "hooked," can have several meanings in anatomy. Uncinate process of pancreas; Uncinate process of ethmoid bone, close to nasal sinus
