Neuroanatomy Lab 2
Subcortical and Brainstem Structures (Cadaver Lab)
To the Instructor: The focus of this lab is on subcortical structures, including the thalamus,
hypothalamus, and basal ganglia, as well as brainstem structures and orientation. You may find
the following figures useful.
Figure
11-20 Basal ganglia
11-21 Hippocampal formation
11-26 Cerebellum, sagittal section, and inferior view; also relation to pons, 4th ventricle
11-29 Anterior brainstem
11-30 Lateral brainstem
11-31 Posterior brainstem
11-32 Brainstem nuclei
11-33 Medulla internal landmarks
11-34 Pons internal landmarks
11-35 Pons internal landmarks
11-36 Midbrain internal landmarks
