Mnemonic:
- Larger the alphabets, larger the diameter (V>F>B)
- Diameters with “sub” prefix are smaller than counterpart without it.
Mnemonic: MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy) in increasing order.

Purines and Pyrimidines Bases Purines = 2 rings Adenine Guanine Hypoxanthine (Deaminated Adenine) Adenine to Hypoxanthine deamination is mediated by Adenosine deaminase which is decreased in Autosomal recessive SCID. Accumulated dATP inhibit ribonucleotide reductase leading to deficient synthesis of other deoxyribonulceotide precursors for DNA synthesis. Xanthine (Deaminated Guanine) Mnemonics: Pure…
Synonyms: Strawberry gallbladder is also known as hyperplastic cholecystoses. Hyperplastic cholecystoses are a spectrum of non-neoplastic proliferative disorders caused by deposition of cholesterol-laden macrophages within the wall of the gall bladder. The cholecystose range from abnormalities of the gallbladder wall (adenomyomatosis and strawberry gall bladder) to gallbladder polyps extending into…
Very useful information
why is submentovertical diameter less than mentovertical
Because it is measured from a closer point to the back of the head.
Bcz it is made by God n we can not change it
submento is from the side of the chin to vertex.so that is why it is smaller than mento vertical.
Pic is informative, could have been more clear graphically
