  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. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    The four cavities of the human brain are called ventricles. [6] The two largest are the lateral ventricles in the cerebrum, the third ventricle is in the diencephalon of the forebrain between the right and left thalamus, and the fourth ventricle is located at the back of the pons and upper half of the medulla oblongata of the

  4. 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]

    The interventricular foramina are two holes (Latin: foramen, pl. foramina) that connect the left and the right lateral ventricles to the third ventricle. [1]They are located on the underside near the midline of the lateral ventricles, [2] and join the third ventricle where its roof meets its anterior surface. [3]

    Grade III - ventricles are enlarged by the accumulated blood; Grade IV - bleeding extends into the brain tissue around the ventricles; Grades I and II are most common, and often there are no further complications. Grades III and IV are the most serious and may result in long-term brain injury to the infant.

    Next, thrust in an inward and upward motion on the diaphragm. This will force air out of the lungs and remove the blockage. Repeat these abdominal thrusts up to five times, the doctor advised.

  9. 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 ...
