Forebrain Flashcards
Mass Intermedia
Interthalamic adhesion connecting L and R thalami
4 Deep Structures of Telencephalon
Basal ganglia
Amygdala
Hippocampus
Olfactory bulb/tract
4 Structures of Basal Ganglia
Caudate
Putamen
Globus pallidus
Subthalamic nucleus
Striatum
Motor thing consisting of putamen and caudate
Notable Point about Olfactory Bulb/Tract
Only thing that doesn’t have to go through thalamus to get to cortex
Internal Capsule
White matter fibers extending from cortex that go down to form peduncles and exit (carrying motor like corticospinal/pontine/bulbar). Have anterior and posterior that come together and form Y to go down
Septum Pellucidum
Fibrous layer that separates 2 lateral ventricles
Nucleus Accumbens
DA projection area where VTA projects to
2 Bulges at End of Thalamus
Geniculates
Hypothalamus
Densely packed nuclei that regulate homeostatic basal shit
2 Important Broadmann Areas
Precentral strip is 4 and postcentral 3
Broca’s vs. Wernicke’s Aphasia
Motor deficit vs. comprehension. Know what to say but difficult to get out vs. fluent nonsense. Frontal vs. temporal lobe
