Desciption | Part |
Structure on the midbrain, conveys signals from cerebral cortex to inferior olivary nucleus and contributes to the control of distal upper extremities | |
Midbrain base nucleus that innervates the striatum and cerebral cortex (compacta) and is a pallidal division of the basal ganglia (reticulata) | |
Swellings on the posterior-ventral diencephalon surface involved in hippocampal processing | |
Region comprised of several small critical nuclei involved in memory processing | |
The connection between the above and below described sctructures | |
Endocrine organ made up of hormone-secreting cells that regulate homeostasis | |
Major division relaying sensory information and motor signals | |
Endocrine organ excreting melatonin, governs the sleep-wake cycle | |
The unpaired, midline ventricular space interposed between the diencephalon of the two cerebral hemispheres | |
Cortex part involved in reasoning, problem solving and judgement | |
Cortex part involved in touch sensation and location of objects | |
Cortex part involved in auditory sensation and language recognition | |
Cortex part involved in visual sensation and processing | |
Massive midline interconnecting the two cerebral hemispheres | |
Thin plate of gray matter lying in the white matter between the insular cortex and the basal ganglia, modulates cortical activity | |
Major basal ganglia component involved in regulating the expression of certain bodily movements, affective behavior and cognitive processes | |
Major basal ganglia component and lateral part of the striatum | |
Involved in intrinsic basal ganglia processing, provides output from basal ganglia that gates thalamic activity | |
Large white matter that lies between the diencephalon and basal ganglia comprising cortical and thalamic projection fibers | |
Large white matter that is a route for cholinergic fibers from the basal forebrain to the cerebral cortex | |
Large white matter of long association fibers that provides bidirectional communication between such areas as Broca's en Wernicke's | |
Medial temporal lobe structure involved in memory acquisition | |
Medial temporal lobe structure integrates emotion, cognition, and autonomic signals | |
Prominent white matter structure conveys information over commissural fibres | |
Extensive, paired, C-shaped component of the ventricular system | |
