Cranial Anatomy Calvaria Calvaria Frontal Frontal Occipital Occipital Left Parietal Left Parietal Right Parietal Right Parietal Floor Floor Ethmoid Sphenoid Left Temporal Right Temporal

The regions of the Cranial Floor Anterior: extends form anterior frontal bone to the lesser wings of the sphenoid Anterior: extends form anterior frontal bone to the lesser wings of the sphenoid It is associated with frontal lobes of cerebellum It is associated with frontal lobes of cerebellum Middle: Extends from lesser wings to the apices of petrous ridges of temporal bone Middle: Extends from lesser wings to the apices of petrous ridges of temporal bone Accommodates temporal lobes and associated neurovascular structures Accommodates temporal lobes and associated neurovascular structures Posterior: deep depression posterior to petrous ridge Posterior: deep depression posterior to petrous ridge which protects cerebellum, pons and medulla oblongata which protects cerebellum, pons and medulla oblongata

Frontal Bone Has a vertical and horizontal portion Has a vertical and horizontal portion Vertical portion- forms the forehead and anterior part of the vault Vertical portion- forms the forehead and anterior part of the vault Horizontal portion- forms roof of orbits, part of the roof of nasal cavity, and greater part of anterior cranial fossa. Horizontal portion- forms roof of orbits, part of the roof of nasal cavity, and greater part of anterior cranial fossa.

Parietal Bone Forms large part of sides of the cranium Forms large part of sides of the cranium Forms posterior portion of the cranial floor Forms posterior portion of the cranial floor Parietal eminence is used to measure width of head Parietal eminence is used to measure width of head

Occipital Bone Inferosuperior portion of calvaria Inferosuperior portion of calvaria Squamous portion is superior to inion Squamous portion is superior to inion Ext. occipital protuberance – prominent bulge Ext. occipital protuberance – prominent bulge Contains foramen magnum and articulates with atlas (C1) Contains foramen magnum and articulates with atlas (C1)

Ethmoid Bone Horizontal portion is called cribiform plate Horizontal portion is called cribiform plate Vertical portion is called perpendicular plate Vertical portion is called perpendicular plate 2 light spongy labyrinths 2 light spongy labyrinths

Sphenoid Bone Resembles shape of a bat Resembles shape of a bat Consists of a body, 2 lesser wings, 2 greater wings, 2 pterygoid processes Consists of a body, 2 lesser wings, 2 greater wings, 2 pterygoid processes Contains Sella turcica- important for positioning errors Contains Sella turcica- important for positioning errors

Sella Turcica Lies in the MSP Lies in the MSP ¾” anterior & superior to EAM ¾” anterior & superior to EAM Deformity of the sella is often the only clue that a lesion exists intracranially Deformity of the sella is often the only clue that a lesion exists intracranially

Temporal Bone Divided in 3 parts Divided in 3 parts Squamous: upper portion forming part of the wall of skull Squamous: upper portion forming part of the wall of skull Mastoid: Posterior to EAM contains mastoid tip (process) Mastoid: Posterior to EAM contains mastoid tip (process) Petrous: dense & houses organs of hearing and balance Petrous: dense & houses organs of hearing and balance Thickest most dense bone in cranium Thickest most dense bone in cranium Level of TEA Level of TEA

Disinfect the Table or Bucky!!

Cleanliness Hair and skin of face are naturally oily; illness often increases oiliness Hair and skin of face are naturally oily; illness often increases oiliness Cranial procedures require direct contact of patient’s face with VBS Cranial procedures require direct contact of patient’s face with VBS Clean device after each patient Clean device after each patient Wash your hands!!! Wash your hands!!!

Radiation Protection Collimate to anatomy of interest Collimate to anatomy of interest Shield gonads/abdomen of pediatric patients and those of reproductive age Shield gonads/abdomen of pediatric patients and those of reproductive age Shield thyroid and thymus of pediatric patient when doing so will not interfere with demonstration of anatomy of interest Shield thyroid and thymus of pediatric patient when doing so will not interfere with demonstration of anatomy of interest Good communication and positioning skills reduce chance of need for repeat radiographs Good communication and positioning skills reduce chance of need for repeat radiographs
