| Vestibulospinal I/p? and where does it originate? | Ipislateral 4 ventricle |
| Tectospinal controls your reaction to which stimulus and describe location and if it decussates or not? | Responses to auditory stimulus Inferior colliculus Contralateral |
| What is medial to anterior limb of the internal capsule? | Caudate nucleus |
| What is medial to posterior limb of the internal capsule? | Thalamus |
| Lateral to the internal capsule is? | Lentiform nucleus that contains putamen and globus pallidus |
| What lies inferior to the cerebellum? | Cereballar tonsil |
| Coning is used to describe what problem? | The tonsil and medulla getting stuck in the foramen magnum |
| Primary fissure separates what? | Anterior posterior lobes of each hemisphere |
| Posterior lobe can be known as? immediately caudal to which nerve entry point? Crossed anteriorly by which nerves? | Flocculo-nodular lobe facial Glossopharyngeal/vagus |
| The Oculomotor/trochlear and abducens supply what muscles for the eye? | Oculomotor supplies I/M/S rectus and inferior oblique Trochlear supplies the superior oblique Abducens supplies the lateral rectus |
| Cranial nerve 1/2 synapse where? | Medial and lateral geniculate nucleus |
| Name the 12 cranial nerves? | olfactory optic oculomotor trochlear trigeminal abducens facial vestibulocochlear glossopharyngeal vagus accessory hypoglossal |
| Three layers of the eye? | Sclera Choroid Retina |
| The Levator palpebrae superiors is innervated by what nerve? | Oculomotor |
| Two divisions of the optic tract, lateral and medial root run where? | Lateral-LGN Medial-Superior colliculus |
| State the order of the three ossicles? | Malleus Incus Stapes |
| Vestibular and cochlear provide what functions? | Balance and Hearing |
| Tensor tympani and stapedius innervation? | Trigeminal and facial |
| Auditory nerves fibres past from the MGN to? | Inferior colliculus |
| Wernickes area, location and problems when theres a lesion? | Temporal mainly and some parietal receptive aphasia |
| Broca area, location and problems when theres a lesion? | Frontal lobe just infront of the precentral gyrus Expressive aphasia |
| Superior speech cortex relates to what area of the brain? | SMA, when theres a lesion not many problems with speech |
| Branches of the brachial plexus? What do they innervate? | Musculataneous-biceps/brachialis Median-Mostly forearm/some hand Axillary-Deltoid Radial-Post part of arm Ulnar-Mostly hand/some forearm |
| Pathological signs of nerve damage? | Wrist drop-Radial Claw hand-Ulnar Waiters tip-Axillary/musc Loss of sensation over lateral palm/thumb-median |
| 7 branches of Lumbar plexus? | Subcostal/Iliohypogastric/ilioingual Genitofemoral/lateral cutaneous of thigh Femoral/Obturator |
| More Medial Femoral or obturator? Innervate what? | Obturator Obturator innervates inner thigh(adductors) Femoral anterior thigh |
| Name the nerves of Sacral plexus? | Superior/inferior gluteal Quadratus femoris/obturator internus Sciatic Posterior/peforating nerve of the thigh/pudendal |
| Three fibre types within the brain? | Projection/Association/Commisural |
| Five divisions of the association fibres? | Extreme and external capsule Cingulum Superior/Inferior longitudinal fasciculus |
| Extreme and external separate what structures? | Extreme-Insular cortex and claustraum External-Claustaum and putamen |
| Comissural fibres can be divided into three sub sections? | Anterior posterior and hippocampus |
| The other main commissary fibre? | Corpus callosum |
| Projection fibres? | Only the internal capsule |
| What does the internal capsule separate? | Lentiform nucleus (GP/putamen) and caudate nucleus |
| Describe the circuit of Papez? | Cingular gyrus to Hippocampus to Hypothalamus (mammillary bodies) to anterior nucleus of the thalamus to cinuglar gyrus to complete the circuit. |
| Mammillary bodies contain nucleus of what part of the limbic system? | Hypothalamus |
| Amygdala receives inputs from what? | Olfactory bulb |
| Where is CSF produced? | Choroid plexus (Lateral, 3rd and 4th ventricles) |
| Describe the pathway the CSF takes | Lateral to the 3rd to 4th via the cerebral aqueduct then enters the sub arachnoid space then it enters the superior sagittal sinuses via the arachnoid granulations due to the pressure differences |
| Describe the pattern of Gracile fascicles and cuneate fascicles? | Above t6 there are both Below t6 only gracile(medial to cuneate) |
| Pineal body produces what and where does it sit? | Melatonin Superior to the tectum |
| Describe the triangles above the obex? | Hypoglossal medial to vagus superior to hypoglossal and vagus is the vestibular area |
| Cancers that cause secondary tumours in the brain? | Kidney/lung/skin/breast Kids love sucking breasts.... |
| Describe the loss of sensation with brown sequard syndrome? (right sided stab) | Loss of fine touch vibration and proprioception on RHS Loss of course touch pain on LHS |
