The science of anatomy is not exact enough.
The science of anatomy is imprecise.I ‘ve been studing anatomy in university for 6 months. And this week we’ve just studied the lymphatic system. According to my textbook, there are no/now? lymphatic vessels in the human brain.
But two days ago I was informed, that’s not true. One year ago, medical researchers in USA found a lymphatic system in mice brains. This suggests that the same vessels are in human brains, too. This experiment was very difficult to repeat on humans. A colorised tracer was injected into anatomized mice and then surgeons detached layers of brain tissue to see the corresponding colorised vessels.
I told my tutor about this discovery and made a report of these pictures of a new view of lymphatic system.
This new information is crucial in Alzheimer’s treatment . All these years, doctors have been treating patients wrongly, convinced that the dural venous sinuses are the primary route for liquid drainage from the brain.
Eureka! You have found it! Well done! (Eureka is doubly apt here, as fluids were also there involved)
