Document Summary
Neuroanatomy refers to the mapping of the different parts and structures of the brain with its associated functions. These are the different subdivisions of the brain. The brain is subdivided into three general subdivisions, organized from an inferior to superior direction. The hindbrain is the lowest part of the brain. The forebrain is the most superior and the most upper part of the brain. Closest to the spinal cord: pons and cerebellum collectively are termed the metencephalon. Controls voluntary or coordinated movement of gait and eye movement. Cerebellum ataxia is a lesion in the cerebellum, which is the incoordination of voluntary movement. Contains as much neurons that is contained in the cerebrum or the rest of: pons. Bridges fibres or bundles of axons that project from the cerebral cortex to. In front of the cerebellum the brain the cerebellum. Contains fibres that bridges axons from the cerebrum to the cerebellum by a cortico ponto cerebellar pathway.
