Hello everyone!
Brain sections are super hard to remember, I imagine them as monsters and this is how I draw them:
Draw the monsters' eyes:
4 eyes for diagram at the level of the superior colliculus
2 eyes for diagram at the level of the inferior colliculus
4 eyes for diagram at the level of the superior colliculus
2 eyes for diagram at the level of the inferior colliculus
A nose for both!
And 2 ears (only for diagram at superior colliculus )
Draw Sharp teeth
Add some hair. And finally label it.
Remembering various lemnisci is tough. Just remember:
MTSL for section at inferior colliculus:
That stands for (Medial to Lateral)
That stands for (Medial to Lateral)
Medial lemniscus
Trigeminal lemniscus
Spinal lemniscus
Lateral lemniscus
MTS for section at level of superior colliculus:
MTS for section at level of superior colliculus:
That stands for (Medial to Lateral)
Medial lemniscus
Trigeminal lemniscus
Spinal lemniscus
Now coming to lesions... To memorize them just remember monsters!
Monsters have PAW's that are Big !!
- P: Parinaud's Syndrome
- A: Argyll-Robertson syndrome
- W: Weber's Syndrome
- B: Benedikts Syndrome
Memorizing site of lesions is even more easy - Just move dorsal to ventral side (PABW)
- Parinaud's Syndrome: Superior Colliculi
- Argyll Robertson Syndrome: Pretectal nucleus
- Benedikts Syndrome: Tegmentum
- Webers Syndrome: Occulomotor nerve nuclei and Corticospinal Fibres
That's all
Thanks!
