what space lies between the dura mater and the arachnoid mater?
subdural space
subpia space
epidural space
subarachnoid space
The meninges are the protective membranes around the brain and spinal cord. The dura mater is the outermost tough layer. The arachnoid mater is the middle layer. The space between the dura mater and arachnoid mater is the subdural space. The subpia space is not a standard term. The epidural space is between the dura mater and the bone (e.g., in the spinal canal). The subarachnoid space is between the arachnoid mater and pia mater (innermost layer) and contains cerebro - spinal fluid.
