  2. Internal cerebral veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_cerebral_veins

    The internal cerebral veins are two veins included in the group of deep cerebral veins that drain the deep parts of the hemispheres; each internal cerebral vein is formed near the interventricular foramina by the union of the superior thalamostriate vein and the superior choroid vein.

  3. Subarachnoid cisterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subarachnoid_cisterns

    Cistern of lateral cerebral fossa. It is situated in the fissure between the frontal and temporal lobes. It contains: The middle cerebral artery; The middle cerebral veins; The fronto-orbital veins; Collaterals to the basal vein; Cistern of lamina terminalis. It is situated just rostral to the third ventricle. It contains:

  4. Cerebral veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_veins

    3D model of cerebral veins. In human anatomy, the cerebral veins are blood vessels in the cerebral circulation which drain blood from the cerebrum of the human brain.They are divisible into external (superficial cerebral veins) and internal (internal cerebral veins) groups according to the outer or inner parts of the hemispheres they drain into.

  5. Cerebral circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_circulation

    Cerebral circulation is the movement of blood through a network of cerebral arteries and veins supplying the brain. The rate of cerebral blood flow in an adult human is typically 750 milliliters per minute, or about 15% of cardiac output. Arteries deliver oxygenated blood, glucose and other nutrients to the brain.

    A copy of Gray's Anatomy can be found on Bartleby and also on Yahoo!. This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise.

  7. Interventricular foramina (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interventricular_foramina...

    In the brain, the interventricular foramina (foramina of Monro) are channels that connect the paired lateral ventricles with the third ventricle at the midline of the brain. As channels, they allow cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) produced in the lateral ventricles to reach the third ventricle and then the rest of the brain's ventricular system.

  8. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    CSF flows from the lateral ventricles via the interventricular foramina into the third ventricle, and then the fourth ventricle via the cerebral aqueduct in the midbrain. From the fourth ventricle it can pass into the central canal of the spinal cord or into the subarachnoid cisterns via three small foramina: the central median aperture and the ...

  9. 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.
