Parts of the Brain
1-Cerebrum:caver diencephalon
* Cerebral hemispheres
* Corpus callosum :white mater fibers connect 2 hemispheres
2-Diencephalon:internal of cerebrum
* thalamus, hypothalamus,”anterior inferior of thalamus” & epithalamus “posterior of thalamus and contine pineal gland and 2 hapnular nucle”
3- Cerebellum :inferior cerebrum and posterior brainstem and connect direct with brain stem
4-Brainstem
* medulla”Caudal &connect with spinal cord “, pons & midbrain “Rostral &connect direct with diencephalon & cerebrum “
Cranial Nerves
- Two cranial nerves (I and II) contain only sensory fibers and are therefore called sensory nerves
- The other cranial nerves contain both sensory and motor fibers and are therefore called mixed nerves
Gray and White Matter
White matter = myelinated processes (white in color)
* Gray matter = nerve cell bodies, dendrites, axon terminals, bundles of unmyelinated axons and neuroglia (gray color)
Fasciculi, Lemnisci, & Tracts
Fasciculi: white mater in brain “Gracile & cuneate fasciculi”
Lemnisci:part of sensory asending tract second order “Medial & lateral lemnisci”
Tracts:in spinal cord acending or decending
Afferent Vs. Efferent
PNS
* Afferent – Sensory fibers
* Efferent – Motor fibers
SC
* Afferent – Ascending tracts
* Efferent – Descending tracts
Brain parts
* Afferent – Inputs
* Efferent – Outputs
Ganglia Vs. Nuclei
- Both are clusters of neurons to form functional unit
- Nuclei in CNS
- Ganglia in PNS
- Sensory ganglia (DRG)
- Autonomic ganglia
Cerebrum
(Cerebral Hemispheres)
**Longitudinal fissure separates left & right cerebral hemispheres
**Corpus callosum is band of white matter connecting left and right cerebral hemispheres
**Cerebral cortex is gray matter overlying white matter
* 2‐4 mm thick containing billions of cells
* grew so quickly formed folds (gyri) and grooves (sulci or fissures)
** Each hemisphere is subdivided into 4 lobes
Lobes and Fissures
Longitudinal fissure
* Frontal lobe
Central sulcus
* precentral & postcentral gyrus
* Parietal lobe
Parieto‐occipital sulcus
* Occipital lobe
Lateral sulcus
* Temporal lobe
* Insula :deep inside lateral fissure so both side is lateral fissure
Cerebral White Matter
- Association fibers between gyri in same hemisphere
- Commissural fibers from one hemisphere to other
- Projection fibers form descending & ascending tracts
Commissural Fibers
Corpus callosum
- Rostrum
- Genu
- Forceps minor
- Body
- Splenium
* Forceps major
#Anterior commissure
#Posterior commissure - Inferior to pineal gland
#Habenular commissure - Superior to pineal gland
#Fornix
pineal gland:posterior to thalamus is epithalamus is contine of pineal gland superior it habenular nucle ma;e habenular commissure
Projection Fibers
1-Corona radiata:from cerebrum cortex
2- Internal capsule “between disepheram (thalamus) and (basal ganglua)”
* Anterior limb
* Genu
* Posterior limb
* Optic radiation
3-Crus cerebri
4-Pyramid

Association Fibers
- Short association fibers
- Connect adjacent gyri
- Close to cortex
- Long association fibers
* Connect the lobes
Association Fibers: long fibers
1-Superior longitudinal fasciculus
* Connects the 4 lobes together
* Arcuate fasciculus
* Broca’s & Wernicke’s
2-Uncinate fasciculus
* Orbital frontal gyri with temporal pole
3-Occipitofrontal fasciculus
* Occipital & frontal
4- Inferior longitudinal fasciculus
* Occipital & temporal lobes
5- Cingulum
* Cingulate gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus & septal area
6-Calcarine fasciculus (short fibers)
* Cuneus & lingual gyri
