  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. Brain asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_asymmetry

    There are particularly large asymmetries in the frontal, temporal and occipital lobes, which increase in asymmetry in the antero-posterior direction beginning at the central region. Leftward asymmetry can be seen in the Heschl gyrus, parietal operculum , Silvian fissure, left cingulate gyrus, temporo-parietal region and planum temporale.

  5. Parahippocampal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parahippocampal_gyrus

    The parahippocampal gyrus (or hippocampal gyrus [1]) is a grey matter cortical region of the brain that surrounds the hippocampus and is part of the limbic system.The region plays an important role in memory encoding and retrieval.

  6. Colpocephaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colpocephaly

    Colpocephaly is a cephalic disorder involving the disproportionate enlargement of the occipital horns of the lateral ventricles and is usually diagnosed early after birth due to seizures. It is a nonspecific finding and is associated with multiple neurological syndromes , including agenesis of the corpus callosum , Chiari malformation ...

  7. Temporoparietal junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporoparietal_junction

    The brain contains four main lobes: temporal lobe, parietal lobe, frontal lobe, and the occipital lobe. The temporoparietal junction lies in the region between the temporal and parietal lobes, near the lateral sulcus (Sylvian fissure). Specifically, it is composed of the inferior parietal lobule and the caudal parts of the superior temporal ...

  8. EC-hippocampus system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EC-hippocampus_system

    The entorhinal cortex (EC) is a major part of the hippocampal formation of the brain, and is reciprocally connected with the hippocampus. [1]The hippocampal formation, which consists of the hippocampus, perirhinal cortex, the dentate gyrus, the subicular areas and the EC forms one of the most important parts of the limbic system.

  9. Perivascular space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perivascular_space

    One of the most basic roles of the perivascular space is the regulation of fluid movement in the central nervous system and its drainage. [13] The spaces ultimately drain fluid from neuronal cell bodies to the cervical lymph nodes. [5]
