The skull is a bone protective cavity for the brain. [1] The skull is composed of three types of bone: cranial bones, facial bones, and ear ossicles. Two parts are more prominent: the cranium (pl.: craniums or crania) and the mandible. [2] In humans, these two parts are the neurocranium (braincase) and the viscerocranium (facial skeleton) that ...
In human anatomy, the neurocranium, also known as the braincase, brainpan, or brain-pan, [ 1 ][ 2 ] is the upper and back part of the skull, which forms a protective case around the brain. [ 3 ] In the human skull, the neurocranium includes the calvaria or skullcap. The remainder of the skull is the facial skeleton.
The calvaria is the top part of the skull. It is the superior part of the neurocranium and covers the cranial cavity containing the brain. It forms the main component of the skull roof. The calvaria is made up of the superior portions of the frontal bone, occipital bone, and parietal bones. [1] In the human skull, the sutures between the bones ...
