What Is Neuroscience Flashcards
What is neuroanatomy
Study if anatomical structures and organization of nervous system (cns and pns);emphasis on mapping, delineation, identification of structures
What is neuroscience
Study of the nervous system
-molecular, cellular, developmental, structural, functional, and evolutionary
Neurophysiology
Study of the functions if the nervous system at levels of molecule, cell, and system; pharmacological and electrochemical functions
Neuroembryology
Study of the development of the nervous system
Typical/not what we expect at certain weeks
How to see thee things
Neurology
Study of the diseases in the NS, using observation of clinical symptoms and neuroimaging to localize site and type if lesion
Work to identify the type of neurologic problem and appropriate course if action
Neuropathology
Study of disease process in NS
Work to identify etiology eye of progressive neurologic diseases and acute injuries
Neuroradiology
Focused on interpretation if neuroimaging results to help identify diseases, lesions, and injuries
Confirm or refute diagnosis of behavior
Neurosurgery
Focused on treatment of neurologic diseases/disorders through use if surgical procedures of the brain
Neuropsychology
Study of brain behavior relationships
Need to understand correlation between behavioral processes and networks that result From these anatomical structures
Neurological behaviors
Motor
Sensation ( perception- vision, heati touch)
Cognitive processes ( attention, perception, memory, lang, self-regulation
How use neuropsychology
When neurologic behaviors are impaired, there is an underlying corresponding neurosanatomical problem
Detect site if lesion based on behavior
Also do imaging techniques when brain is in action
