Study of Health in Pomerania Pomeranian adult population. In the Northeast of Germany nearly 50% - 60% indicate these diseases. SHIP is the first population based cohort study worldwide which includes whole-body MRI. The aims of the following main whole body-MRI study are: (1)To provide prevalence estimates for different MR findings in a general adult population. (2)To establish population-based MRI reference parameters for various organs and organ parts such as left and right ventricular size or volume of liver, spleen, kidney, prostate, and brain structures . Clinical MR reference parameters currently in use were derived from small, nonrepresentative samples and are thus prone to selection
Circumventricular organs is also hypothesized that the VOLT may be the mechanism through which pyrogens function to initiate a febrile response in the CNS. Finally, VOLT neurons have been observed to respond to temperature changes indicating that the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis is subject to different climates. The subfornical organ is a sensory CVO situated in the lamina terminalis and lacking the BBB, the absence of which characterizes the circumventricular organs. Protruding into the third ventricle of the brain, the highly vascularized SFO can be divided into 3–4 anatomical zones, especially by its capillary density and structure. The central zone
