The hypopallial region is also known as the dorsal ventricular ridge, described as having anterior and posterior (amygdaloid) regions. [ 4 ] Birds essentially show much increased cellularity, keeping within the reptilian morphological schema, which leads to the apparent disappearance of layering within its medial and dorsal pallial sectors.
The calcar avis, (calcarine spur) previously known as the hippocampus minor, [1] is an involution of the wall of the lateral ventricle's posterior horn produced by the calcarine fissure. [ 2 ] It is sometimes visible on ultrasound [ 3 ] and can resemble a clot .
The fourth ventricle narrows at the obex (in the caudal medulla), to become the central canal of the spinal cord. [citation needed] In more detail, around the third week of development, the embryo is a three-layered disc. The embryo is covered on the dorsal surface by a layer of cells called ectoderm.
The bundle branches were separately described by Retzer and Braeunig as early as 1904, but their physiological function remained unclear and their role in the electrical conduction system of the heart remained unknown until Sunao Tawara published his monograph on Das Reizleitungssystem des Säugetierherzens (English: The Conduction System of the Mammalian Heart) in 1906.

The superior medullary velum (anterior medullary velum) is a thin, transparent lamina of white matter [citation needed] which - together with the inferior medullary velum - forms the roof of the fourth ventricle. It extends between the two superior cerebellar peduncles. The lingula of cerebellum covers - and adheres to - its dorsal surface. [1]
The vascular organ of lamina terminalis (VOLT), organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT), or supraoptic crest [1] is a sensory organ, one of the circumventricular organs of the third ventricle within the lamina terminalis. It is covered with pia mater, and lined with ependyma.
Fourth ventricle location shown in red (E), pons (B); the floor of the ventricle is to the right, the roof to the left. The fourth ventricle has a roof at its upper (posterior) surface and a floor at its lower (anterior) surface, and side walls formed by the cerebellar peduncles (nerve bundles joining the structure on the posterior side of the ventricle to the structures on the anterior side).
The fossa consists of three parts, superior, intermediate, and inferior: The superior part The superior part is triangular in shape and limited laterally by the superior cerebellar peduncle; its apex, directed upward, is continuous with the cerebral aqueduct; its base is represented by an imaginary line at the level of the upper ends of the superior foveae.
