Definition that contains cerebral hemisphere
- striatum a striped mass of white and grey matter located in front of the thalamus in each cerebral hemisphere; consists of the caudate nucleus and the lenticular nucleus
- cingulate gyrus a long curved structure on the medial surface of the cerebral hemispheres; the cortical part of the limbic system
- hemispheric of or relating to the cerebral hemispheres
- right hemisphere the cerebral hemisphere to the right of the corpus callosum that controls the left half of the body
- interventricular foramen the small opening (on both the right and left sides) that connects the third ventricle in the diencephalon with the lateral ventricle in the cerebral hemisphere
- callosectomy severing the corpus callosum so that communication between the cerebral hemispheres is interrupted (in cases of severe intractable epilepsy)
- vena cerebrum superior a cerebral vein that drains the dorsal convexity of the cerebral hemisphere and empties into the cavernous sinus
- monro's foramen the small opening (on both the right and left sides) that connects the third ventricle in the diencephalon with the lateral ventricle in the cerebral hemisphere
- foramen of monro the small opening (on both the right and left sides) that connects the third ventricle in the diencephalon with the lateral ventricle in the cerebral hemisphere
- corpus callosum a broad transverse nerve tract connecting the two cerebral hemispheres
