Unit 3 Exam Flashcards
Name the lobes of the Brain
Frontal lobe Frontal bone - Anterior lobe
Occipital Lobe Occipital bone- Posterior lobe
Parietal lobe Parietal bone- mid section
Temporal lobe Temporal bone- mid section
Regions of the brain name 4
Cerebrum we think about the lobes
Diencephalon
Brain stem
Cerebellum
What the largest portion of the brain
Cerebrum also known as the cortex
The cerebrum has a right and left what?
Hemispheres
Corpus collosum connects what?
Hemispheres
IHF Interhemisphere fissure seperates what?
the right and left hemisphere fissure
CEREBRUM OF THE BRAIN
Largest portion of brain
Also referred to as cortex
Consists of two hemispheres
Corpus Collosum connects hemispheres
IHF separates Right from left side
Logitudinal fissure is also know an
Infrahemisphere fissure
Logitudinal and IHF has a what? and where is it ?
is the deep cleft between the two hemispheres
Whats Gyri
Convolutions between sulci
Bumps
GYRI and SULCI
5 Lateral (Sylvian) fissure
- Precentral gyrus
- Central sulcus
- Postcentral gyrus
- Superior temporal gyrus
Whats a sulci?
Grooves ridges, furrows
Deep sulci are fissure
main one Deep fissure lateral Sylvian
its the lateral side
deep sulci
main one sulcus
what seperates
Central sulcus
separates anterior and posterior
based on the location is centralized in the brain
Precentral gyrus
not too important before the central sulcus
postcentral gyrus
posterior
"”post’’ after
superior temporal gyrus
in the temporal lobe superior aspects
Longitudinal or IHF is where
Longitudinal fissure is described as the deep cleft between the two hemispheres
GYRI versus Sulci
SULCI
Grooves ridges, furrows
DeepSulci are fissures
GYRI
lConvolutions between sulci
Bumps
whats a Gyri
Prominent rounded elevations or convolutions that form the cerebral hemispheres, each consisting of an exposed superficial portion and a portion hidden from view in the wall and floor of the sulci
lBumps not grooves
Sulci
dip in
Grooves or Furrows on the surface of the brain bounding the several convolutions or gyri Also referred to as fissures or slight depressions
CEREBRUM
Surface layer is gray matter
Consists of nerves cell bodies, and fibers
2-4mm thick
Lying underneath cerbral cortex is lighter colored white matter, made up of myelinated nerve fibers
Scattered throughout white matter is basal ganglia
2-4 mm think what is it?
Cerebrum
Surface layer is gray matter
Cerebrum
Lying underneath cerebral cortex is lighter colored white matter, made up of what?
MYELINATED NERVE FIBER
inner is of the brain is what
White matter
The outer is
Gray matter
Scattered throughout white matter is
Basal ganglia
Gray matter is myelinated or not
its not myelinated
Cerebral cortex is
gray myelinated
Basal Ganglia
Two of the larges regions of basal ganglia are caudate nuclues and lentiform nucleus and lentiform nucleus
lentiform nucleus ocated is centrally located in each cerebral hemisphere
the caudate nucleus is more depth than tha lentiform nucleus
caudate nuclues is more importatant
Cauadate nucleus
Lies in the subependymal space of the basal ganglia
visualized in association/ relationship of the lateral ventrical
Subependymal space
basal ganglia relates to the general matrix
Diencephalon
Centrally located between the hemispheres it surrounds the 3rd ventricle and conist of
Epithalamus
Thalamus
Hypothalamus
Brain stem
Subdivion of the brain stem
goes from superior to inferior
- Midbrain
- Pons
- Medulla
Brain stem where is it located
Midbrain located between Diencephalon and pons
surround the cerebral aquaduct
Pineal glands projects from diencephalon
cerebral peduncles are ropelike bundles on ventral aspect of midbrain
Brain stem
Pons are prominent band of fibers located between midbrain and medulla oblongata
most of fibers connect to the cerebellum posterior to it
posterior to that is the medulla oblongata
and inferior to the medulla oblongata is the brain stem
Midbrain
Medulla Oblongata
conical shape
extends from pons to foramen magnum
then continuous with spinal cord
they run together
Cerebral aqueduct widens about halfway along Medulla Oblongata to form fourth ventricle
Ventricles of the brain
Ventricles are filled with fluid within the brain contains CFS
Broken down into pairs of lateral ventricle they are paired not midline they are paired sagital
thrid ventricle more mid line and third ventricle is sandwhich with the thalamus
fourth ventricle more mid line
They carry the Cerebrum Spinal Fluid
the ventricles have an frontal and anterior horns they have a body and ocipital horn that can also be called posterior
What happens when the aqueduct wides
the aqueducts is the area that goes from the third to the 4th ventricle is not the 4th ventrcile when the aqueducts wides is the 4th ventricle
Whats midline in the brain?
septum pellucidum is the
space its from the corpus collusum
if we dont see a septum pellucidum on a fetus or band there no wont be a space
What are midline structure in the brain
Third ventricle
foramen of monroe
corpus callosum? not too sure
mass intermedia
aqueducts of silvius
4th ventricle
cerebellum -vermis
Whats the inner table of the skull?
its the part of brain inside and knocking the skull
inside the brain
knocking from inside and telling the brain let me out
Whats the outer table of the skull?
knocking the outside of the brain skull
whats cp?
Chorois plexus
The body of the lateral ventricular is what?
Longest portion of the ventricular system right and left
at the atria in the lateral ventricular the chorid plexus fills the atria of the lateral ventricular
Wheres the atria in the brain?
the atria of the lateral ventricle is just communication it fans out to get to the inferior
Whats the benefit of coronal view?
we can see the right and the left side together and the whole long axis
is not a transverse cut
parasagital view we can see
the third ventricle,
fourth ventricle
vermis
foramen magnum
and cisterna magna
we cannot see the front bone
