Let's take a look at the sagittal midline cut,
0:04
the guts, the heart and soul of MRI of the brain
0:07
where you might use this sequence to evaluate,
0:10
and especially this projection,
0:11
to look for anomalies of the brain in pediatric patients.
0:14
I want to talk about the commissures.
0:16
So, I'm going to start out with the inferior colliculus,
0:19
the superior colliculus.
0:20
And I run right into the posterior commissure,
0:22
which is a pretty small structure.
0:23
And right above it is the habenular commissure,
0:26
sitting between it, the posterior commissure,
0:29
and the pineal gland, which is not a commissure.
0:32
Another commissure is the interthalamic adhesion,
0:36
which you can scroll back and forth,
0:38
the midline portion of the thalamus.
0:41
A well-known commissure,
0:43
anteriorly, is the anterior commissure.
0:45
And then the largest commissure,
0:47
the granddaddy of them all,
0:49
is the corpus callosum.
0:51
And look in the midline,
0:52
we see a vertical slit-like area of hyperintensity.
0:55
Right there.
0:56
The lamina terminalis and
0:58
the rostrum of the corpus callosum,
1:00
followed by genu body and the splenium of the corpus
1:03
callosum, which you're all familiar with.
1:05
And as long as we're in the neighborhood,
1:07
we've got the body and crus of the fornix
1:09
and then the fornix itself.
1:11
We'll move on now to some of the other structures
1:14
in the midline, if you have time.
