Penumbra

Penumbra

Penumbra is the region where only a concealing part of the body is obscuring the light source. An observer in the gloom sees a partial eclipse. In order for the penumbra to exist, it is necessary that we have an extensive light source, that is, non-punctiform. A punctiform light source does not project penumbra, just something called umbra. In legal terminology, penumbra is a gray area, where a piece of legislation has no clearly defined meaning. In neurology, an ischemic penumbra is a transitional perimeter that involves the central area of ​​the brain where an ischemic stroke occurred. The cells in the penumbra are still viable, but metabolically lethargic, resulting in non-functional neurons with potential to be recovered. Penumbra é a região em que somente uma parte do corpo ocultante está obscurecendo a fonte de luz. Um observador na penumbra vê um eclipse parcial. Para que exista a penumbra, é necessário que tenhamos uma fonte luminosa extensa, ou seja, não puntiforme. Uma fonte de luz puntiforme não projeta penumbra, apenas algo denominado umbra. Na terminologia legal, a penumbra é uma área cinzenta, onde uma parte da legislação não tem significado claramente definido. Em neurologia, uma penumbra isquêmica é um perímetro de transição que envolve a área central do cérebro onde um acidente vascular cerebral isquêmico ocorreu. As células na penumbra ainda são viáveis​​, mas metabolicamente letárgicas, resultando em não-funcionais de neurônios com potencial para ser recuperado.
