  2. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    Lateral ventricles and horns The lateral ventricles connected to the third ventricle by the interventricular foramina. Each lateral ventricle takes the form of an elongated curve, with an additional anterior-facing continuation emerging inferiorly from a point near the posterior end of the curve; the junction is known as the trigone of the lateral ventricle.

  3. Calcar avis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcar_avis

    The calcar avis, previously known as the hippocampus minor, [1] is an involution of the wall of the lateral ventricle's posterior cornu produced by the calcarine fissure. [2] It is sometimes visible on ultrasonogram [3] and can resemble a clot. [4]

  4. Posterior horn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_horn

    Posterior horn of lateral ventricle in the brain, which passes forward, laterally and slightly downward, from the corpus callosum into the occipital lobe Posterior horn of spinal cord , the dorsal (towards the back) grey matter section of the spinal cord that receives several types of sensory information from the body including light touch ...

  5. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    CSF is produced by modified ependymal cells of the choroid plexus found in all components of the ventricular system except for the cerebral aqueduct and the posterior and anterior horns of the lateral ventricles. CSF flows from the lateral ventricles via the interventricular foramina into the third ventricle, and then the fourth ventricle via ...

  6. Collateral eminence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collateral_eminence

    The collateral eminence is an elongated swelling lying lateral parallel with ... the trigone of the lateral ventricle, situated between the posterior and inferior ...

  7. Brain asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_asymmetry

    Rightward asymmetry can be seen in the right central sulcus (potentially suggesting increased connectivity between motor and somatosensory cortices in the left side of the brain), lateral ventricle, entorhinal cortex, amygdala and temporo-parieto-occipital area. Sex-dependent brain asymmetries are also common. For example, human male brains are ...

  8. Hyperintensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperintensity

    Hyperintensities are commonly divided into 3 types depending on the region of the brain where they are found. Deep white matter hyperintensities occur deep within white matter, periventricular white matter hyperintensities occur adjacent to the lateral ventricles and subcortical hyperintensities occur in the basal ganglia.

  9. Calcarine sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcarine_sulcus

    The anterior part of this sulcus gives rise to the prominence of the calcar avis in the posterior cornu of the lateral ventricle. The cuneus is above the calcarine sulcus, while the lingual gyrus is below it. [2] [3]
