Midsagittal Section of Brain / neuroanatomy

The midsagittal section of the brain shows the three major parts of the brain, which are the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem. The cerebrum (prosencephalon or forebrain) comprises the telencephalon (cerebral hemispheres) and the diencephalon. They are each also divided into subparts or regions for simplified localization of structures, for example, the brainstem is composed of the midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata, while the cerebrum is divisible into lobes. Sulci are small grooves that divide and define gyri; large grooves, called fissures, divide the cerebral cortex into lobes, and also the cerebrum into the right and left cerebral hemispheres along the midsagittal plane. The fissure involved in this division is called the medial longitudinal fissure. From the midsagittal section of the brain both white and gray matter can be observed, as well as important spaces such as the third and fourth ventricles. for more see videos.
