• SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure (body structure)\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...
• \An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Membrane organ structure (body structure)\The three membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord, consisting of the dura mater, arachnoid, and pia mater. The pia and arachnoid in combination are referred to as the leptomeninges.\Meninges part\Leptomeninges structure\Arachnoid structure
