dura mater the outer layer arachnoid mater the middle layer pia mater the inner layer inseparable from the brain The cranial dura is formly adherent to the periosteum of skull bones The arachnoid mater is loosely adherent to the dura mater Between the arachnoid and the pia is the subarachnoid space Meninges
A double layer of dura projects into the cranial cavity. These dural folds form: Falx cerebri Tentorium cerebelli Diaphragm of sella turcica
meninges: Subarachnoid space Falx cerebri dura arachnoid Tentorium cerebelli pia mater Diaphragm of sella turcica
