3. Functional neuroanatomy and vasculature, part 1: The brain stem, cerebellum, cerebrum, and spinal cord
Blood supply to the Central Nervous System An understanding of the brain’s blood supply is crucial to understanding normal CNS function. Conversely, the consequences of cerebrovascular disease affecting the brainstem and cerebrum leading to a loss of function is also vital. Figure 3.1. Schematic of blood supply to brain stem regions (in transverse section). Simon, […]
2. The meninges and ventricles
The meninges and meningeal spaces Figure 2.1. Meninges and meningeal spaces. By OpenStax, CC BY 4.0. Modified July 9, 2018, by Lampa. The meninges can be subdivided into cranial and spinal portions. The meninges function to protect, to act as a scaffold supporting blood vessels and venous sinuses, and finally to form a continuous sac, […]
