1. Brain

2. Brain Protective coverings Cranium Cranial meninges: 1- Dura mater
2- Arachnoid mater
3- Pia mater

4. Major parts of the brain
Cerebrum
Brain stem
Cerebellum
diencephalon

5. The cerebrum Cerebrum is the largest part of brain.
Situated in anterior and middle cranial fossa.

6. Third ventricle Slitlike cleft between the two thalami.
Communicates anteriorly with lateral ventricles, and posteriorly with fourth ventricle.

10. Lateral ventricles
There are two lateral ventricles; one in each hemisphere.
Each one is roughly C-shaped cavity.
Divided into body, anterior, posterior and inferior horns.

11. Fourth ventricle has a characteristic diamond shape in cross-sections
It is located within the pons or in the upper part of the medulla

14. Consists of three types of tracts:
Cerebral white matter
Consists of three types of tracts:
Association tracts
Commissural tracts (Corpus callosum)
Projection tracts (internal capsule)

15. Association fibers

24. Cortical areas Frontal lobe Primary motor area (area 4).
Secondary motor area(area 6)
Frontal eye field area
Prefrotal cortex
Motor speech area of Broca (Brodmann’s areas 44, 45)

29. Pariteal lobe:
Primary somatic sensory cortex (Brodmann’s areas 3,1 and 2).
Somesthetic association area (5,7).

30. Occipital lobe: Primary visual area (Brodmann’s area 17).
Secondary visual area (Brodmann’s areas 18,19).

31. Temporal lobe: Primary auditory area (Brodmann’s areas 41,42).
Secondary auditory area (Brodmann’s area 22).
Sensory speech area of Wernicke.
