The Ventricles: Neuroanatomy Video Lab - Brain Dissections

The ventricles are demonstrated and named on a model cast as well as in rotating 3D reconstructions. The production, function, circulation and removal of CSF produced by the choroid plexus is discussed using a diagram and then reviewed on frontal, axial and sagittal brain specimens and corresponding MRI’s. The blood CSF and brain barriers are mentioned along with the cisterns.
