Diencephalon
A subcortical nuclear mass forming the central core of the brain
Consists of two major structures:
- Thalamus
-Hypothalamus.
The third ventricle bisects the bilateral diencephalic nuclei in the midline.
Caudally, the diencephalon is continuous with the midbrain of the brainstem.

Thalamus
Oval nuclear mass, above the hypothalamus in the floor of the lateral ventricles.
Bilateral thalamic nuclei are interconnected by the mass intermedia tissue.
Has a number of specific and non-specific nuclei, and projects to different parts of the brain.
![Page 4: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Thalamus
Major functions:
- Relay sensorimotor information to the cortex
-Role in speech, language and auditory functioning (contains the Medial Geniculate Body).
Lesions in the Thalamus result in:
-Impaired contralateral somatic sensation
-Burning sensation
- Low tolerance to pain

Hypothalamus
Consists of nuclei that regulate various autonomic and endocrine functions.
These autonomic and endocrine functions include:
- Temperature
-Water and food intake
-Hormone production
-Emotions
-Reproduction.

Brainstem
Short extension of the CNS that connects the diencephalon to the spinal chord.
The Brainstem consists of the following 3 structures:
- Midbrain
-Pons
-Medulla
The medulla is continuous with the spinal chord at the level of the foramen magnum.
Ventral View of the Brainstem
![Page 12: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Brainstem
The Brainstem is responsible for:
-Monitoring all conscious brain output.
-Possessing automatic control systems that are more
genetically programmed.
Contains 10 of the 12 CN nuclei
-2 from the midbrain (CN 3 & 4)
-4 from the pons (CN 5-8)
-4 from the medulla (CN 9-12).
![Page 13: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Brainstem
Internally, the brainstem primarily consists of :
-CN nuclei
- Longitudinal fiber tracts
-The reticular formation
The reticular formation is composed of neuronal circuits that are connected to other nuclei of the brainstem and cortex.
Integrates sensorimotor function with internally generated thoughts, emotions, and cognition.
![Page 14: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Brainstem
Also, governs the Reticular Activating System (RAS) that controls consciousness and arousal.
Important to communication, the RAS regulates respiration and swallowing by integrating information of CNs V, VII, IX, X, and XII.

Meninges
3 concentric, fibrous tissue layers covering the CNS
1.Duramater
2.Arachnoid membrane
3.Piamater
![Page 34: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Meninges: Duramater
Duramater is the toughest, outter, gray layer 2 spaces: Epidural – space between the skull and duramater
Subdural – Space between the dura and arachnoid
2 layers: – External periosteal
internal meningeal 3 cavaties:
Falx cerebri – is the largest of the dural extensions, it projects into the longitudinal fissure that separates the two cerebral hemispheres
Tentorium Cerebelli - Separates the cerebellum from the inferior portion of the occipital lobes.
Falx Cerebelli - small triangular extension of the tentorium cerebelli that separates the two cerebellar hemispheres.
![Page 35: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Meninges: Duramater
Pathology of Duramater: Subdural hematoma:
Abnormal collection of blood between the dura and the arachnoid, usually as a result of torn veins secondary to head trauma.
Epidural hematoma: A collection of blood between the dura and the inner surface of the skull, and is usually due to arterial bleeding.
![Page 36: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Meninges: Arachnoid membrane
Arachnoid membrane is separated from the dura mater by the subdural space. Arachnoid membrane finger-like projections within
this layer are known as the arachnoid villi. The CSF drains back to the ventricular system
through these villi.
The subarachnoid space lies between the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater Is filled with CSF produced by the ventricular
system which enters through the foramina of the fourth ventricle
Covers the whole CNS
![Page 37: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Meninges: Pia Mater
Pia mater is the thin, transparent, collagenous, innermost membrane.
It is closely attached to the brain tissue and follows its contours
The brains blood vessels penetrate the pia mater
![Page 38: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Meninges of Spinal Cord
All 3 meninges cover the spinal chord
Spinal arachnoid membrane extends all the way to the cauda equina and the subarachnoid space is filled with CSF
Spinal pia mater continues with the filum terminale after the conus medullaris until the sacral level of the vertebrae
There are a few differences: Spinal duramater is single
layered Spinal dura is a relative loose
layer, punctured with the exiting spinal nerves
![Page 39: Diencephalon, Brainstem, Cerebellum, Spinal Cord, & Meninges Brittany Vetter, Andrea Jarrett, & Jessie Qualls](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f005503460f94c15e48/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
