  2. Computed tomography of the head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computed_tomography_of_the...

    Computed tomography of the head uses a series of X-rays in a CT scan of the head taken from many different directions; the resulting data is transformed into a series of cross sections of the brain using a computer program. [1] CT images of the head are used to investigate and diagnose brain injuries and other neurological conditions, as well ...

  3. CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

    CT Perfusion scan of the brain. CT perfusion imaging is a specific form of CT to assess flow through blood vessels whilst injecting a contrast agent. Blood flow, blood transit time, and organ blood volume, can all be calculated with reasonable sensitivity and specificity.

  4. Subarachnoid cisterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subarachnoid_cisterns

    Anatomical terminology. [ edit on Wikidata] The subarachnoid cisterns are spaces formed by openings in the subarachnoid space, an anatomic space in the meninges of the brain. [1] The space is situated between the two meninges, the arachnoid mater and the pia mater. These cisterns are filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain

    The brain is the central organ of the human nervous system, and with the spinal cord makes up the central nervous system. The brain consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. It controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sense organs, and making ...

  6. Corona radiata - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_radiata

    Corona radiata. Dissection showing the course of the cerebrospinal fibers. In neuroanatomy, the corona radiata is a white matter sheet that continues inferiorly as the internal capsule and superiorly as the centrum semiovale. This sheet of both ascending and descending axons carries most of the neural traffic from and to the cerebral cortex.

  7. Lentiform nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lentiform_nucleus

    In a coronal section through the middle of the lentiform nucleus, two medullary laminae are seen dividing it into three parts. The lateral and largest part is of a reddish color, and is known as the putamen, while the medial and intermediate are of a yellowish tint, and together constitute the globus pallidus; all three are marked by fine radiating white fibers, which are most distinct in the ...

  8. Occipital lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_lobe

    The occipital lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in the brain of mammals. The name derives from its position at the back of the head, from the Latin ob, 'behind', and caput, 'head'. The occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the mammalian brain containing most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex. [1]

  9. Cisterna magna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisterna_magna

    The cisterna magna is labelled as cisterna cerebellomedullaris at the lower right. The cisterna magna ( posterior cerebellomedullary cistern, [1] or cerebellomedullary cistern [2] [3]) is the largest of the subarachnoid cisterns. It occupies the space created by the angle between the caudal/inferior surface of the cerebellum, and the dorsal ...
