Arteries of the thalamus: General characteristics and anatomy, structure of the walls and their features

The thalamus is a part of the brain that is located in the middle section between the two hemispheres and is the center for regulating human motor activity. Another important function of the thalamus is the integration of all types of sensitivity coming from different parts of the brain.

Anatomy of the arteries of the brain The arteries supplying blood to the thalamus are divided into several groups: * Deep part - supplies blood to parts of the midbrain and thalamus. Located near the pituitary gland, it originates from the internal carotid artery system and then divides dichotomously, forming arteries, the blood supply from which in the thalamus is distributed along the thin trunk and the intermediate nucleus of the optic nerve.

* Medium depth - supply blood to the entire ciliary complex (gray and white matter) of the parietal lobe. Formed in the internal carotid system and
