The spinal cord (and brain) are protected by three layers of tissue or membranes called meninges, that surround the canal. The dura mater is the outermost layer, and it forms a tough protective coating.Between the dura mater and the surrounding bone of the vertebrae is a space called the epidural space.he spinal cord (and brain) are protected by three layers of tissue or membranes called meninges, that surround the canal.
