REVIEW: LAB2

• How are the lateral ventricles confluent with the 3rd ventricle?

• Answer– The foramen of

Monroe

REVIEW: LAB2

• What structure forms the walls of the third ventricle?

• Answer– The thalamus

REVIEW: LAB2

• Be sure that you understand the skewed "C" shape of the lateral ventricles.

REVIEW: LAB2

• Be sure that you understand the shape of the fornix

• Answer– The fornix is a white

matter fiber intra-hemispheric structure that connects the hippocampus to the mammillary bodies

hippocampi

REVIEW: LAB2

• How does CSF flow from the third and to the fourth ventricle?

• Answer– The cerebral

aqueduct

REVIEW: LAB2

• What is the relationship between the internal capsule and the cerebral peduncle?

• Answer– The internal capsule is a collection

of white matter fiber pathways– The cerebral peduncles are a

continuation of the internal capsule

REVIEW: LAB2

• Follow the optic tract
