    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_of_Ranvier

    Born in Lyon, Ranvier was one of the most prominent histologists of the late 19th century. Ranvier abandoned pathological studies in 1867 and became an assistant of physiologist Claude Bernard. He was the chairman of General Anatomy at the Collège de France in 1875. Ranvier discovered the nodes in 1878. [23]

  3. Ankyrin-3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankyrin-3

    The protein encoded by this gene, ankyrin-3 is an immunologically distinct gene product from ankyrins ANK1 and ANK2, and was originally found at the axonal initial segment and nodes of Ranvier of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Alternatively spliced variants may be expressed in other tissues.

  9. Rotational angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_angiography

    Rotational angiography is a medical imaging technique based on x-ray, that allows to acquire CT-like 3D volumes during hybrid surgery or during a catheter intervention using a fixed C-arm. The fixed C-arm thereby rotates around the patient and acquires a series of x-ray images that are then reconstructed through software algorithms into a 3D ...
