Practical- Neuro Anatomy Flashcards
1
Q
A
Globus pallidus
2
Q
A
Lateral geniculate nucleus
3
Q
Function of lateral geniuclate nucleus
A
Thalamic relay center for vision
4
Q
Function of medial geniuclate nucleus
A
Thalamic relay station for auditory sense
-relays info btwn inferior colliculus (of the tectum) and the auditory cortex (in the lateral fissure)
5
Q

Insula
6

Nucleus accumbens
7
Q
A
Fornix
8
Q

Amygdala
9
Q
A
Nucleus accumbens
10
Q
A
Marginal branch of the cingulate gyrus
11
Q
A
Left side of image: crus of fornix, lateral ventricle, superior colliculus, cerebral aqueduct, basilar pons
Rightside of image: caudate, thalamus, medial geniculate body, lateral geniculate body, tail of caudate, inferior horn of lateral ventricle, hippocampus
12
Q
A
Paracentral lobule
13
Q
A
Postcentral gyrus
- not the superior frontal sulcus running vertically back from anterior and hitting the precentral sulcus, then central sulcus right behind the precentral sulcus
- also note the symmetric and large marginal branch of the cingulate gyrus which is just posterior to the central gyrus
14
Q
A
Anterior cerebral arteries
- this far anterior the arteries (despite being inferior) are the anterior (not the posterior) cerebral arteries
- PCA would be much more dorsal
15
Q
A
Optic radiations
