In the brain, the corpora quadrigemina (Latin for "quadruplet bodies") are the four colliculi—two inferior, two superior—located on the tectum of the dorsal aspect of the midbrain. They are respectively named the inferior and superior colliculus. The corpora quadrigemina are reflex centers involving vision and hearing.
Brainstem (dorsal view) A:Thalamus B:Midbrain C:Pons D:Medulla oblongata 7 and 8 are the four colliculi.. The midbrain is the shortest segment of the brainstem, measuring less than 2cm in length.
The quadrigeminal cistern [1] (also cistern of great cerebral vein, [1] vein of Galen cistern, [2] superior cistern, [2] [3] Bichat's canal, [3] or peripineal cistern [2]) is a subarachnoid cistern situated between splenium of corpus callosum, and the superior surface of the cerebellum.
Section of mid-brain at level of superior colliculi. Hind- and mid-brains; postero-lateral view. Superior colliculus labeled in blue. The superior colliculus is a paired structure of the dorsal midbrain and is part of the midbrain tectum.
The collicular artery or quadrigeminal artery arises from the posterior cerebral artery. This small artery supplies portions of the midbrain , [ 1 ] especially the superior colliculus , inferior colliculus , and tectum .
2025 fitness trends are expected to include strength training, a holistic mind-body approach, more wearable tech, and AI-generated workouts, to name a few.
Each ambient cistern extends anterolaterally around the mesencephalon to become continuous rostrally/anteriorly with the interpeduncular cistern. [2] Each ambient cistern is continuous dorsally/posteriorly with the quadrigeminal cistern; [3] [4] inversely, each ambient cistern is an anterolateral extension of the quadrigeminal cistern on either side [2] (some sources define the quadrigeminal ...
The trunk of the body contains, from superior to inferior, the thoracic region encompassing the chest [1] the mammary region encompassing each breast; the sternal region encompassing the sternum; the abdominal region encompassing the stomach area; the umbilical region is located around the navel; the coxal region encompassing the lateral (side ...
