Again you can see the cerebrum at
the rostral end of
this image and the brain
stem at the caudal
end. The lateral
edges of the cerebellum
are peeking down from the dorsal surface of
the brain stem just caudal to the cerebrum in this ventral
view.
This is another bit-o- text to
practice in order to become a fluent neuoranatomist.
The midline of the brain is very
clear on the ventral surface.
You can see the two sides of the cerebrum
and the brain stem
have a very clear midline. The basilar artery,
which is lying on the ventral surface
of the brain, is
easily
seen as it runs up the midline of the brain
stem.
