Cortical is a word referring to the cortex, so the subcortical region of the brain is literally 'anything beneath the cortex'; but, since the brain isn't arranged in flat layers, it may be easier to visualise this analogy: If you picture the brain as being half an orange, the outer skin (the zest) would equate to the grey matter of cerebral cortex, & the inner skin (the pith) to the white matter; everything else (the pulp & the pips of the orange) represents the subcortical structures, which include various ventricles & nuclei, the thalamus, hypothalamus, cerebellum, & the parts that make up the brainstem. Subcortical pathways enable fast, unconscious reactions; so a reflex is a subcortical action.
Mass, volume, and density
Density depends on mass and volume. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while volume is the amount of space it occupies. The formula for density is density = mass/volume.
the cerebral neurons are housed in the cerebrums outer region called the CEREBRAL CORTEX
That would be the concept of density, which is the mass of an object divided by its volume. It is a measure of how tightly packed the matter in an object is.
Subcortical white matter lesions may be associated with cardiovascular disease. They may also be associated with multiple sclerosis, if the patient has other MS signs and symptoms.
Small hypo densities are seen in bilatereral para ventricular region
my husband has t2 intense foci in the subcortical white matter in the frontal and parietal reigon these are compatible with foci of chronic ischaemic change the finding is related to small vessel disease his mood swings are getting worse would this disease be a part of mood swings.
Hyperintense signals in the bifrontal subcortical white matter on MRI can indicate various conditions such as small vessel ischemic disease, demyelination, or inflammation. Further evaluation and clinical correlation are necessary to determine the underlying cause.
The periventricular white matter is located around the ventricles of the brain, primarily surrounding the lateral ventricles, while the subcortical white matter is found beneath the cerebral cortex of both cerebral hemispheres. These regions are crucial for communication between different brain areas, facilitating the transmission of signals. The periventricular white matter contains important pathways involved in various functions, whereas the subcortical white matter connects cortical areas with deeper structures and plays a role in motor control and cognitive processing.
density is mass to volume ratio of matter
The concentration of matter in an object is called the density.
The density will change if the amount of matter in the same volume changes. You can have more matter wihtout changing the density, if the matter occupies more space.
Matter has got mass. Matter occupy space. The formula of density is mass upon volume. So matter has got density. So matter has to have density. That is why density is considered as intrinsic property of the matter.
Matter is in density.
The density of solid state of matter is higher than the density of liquids and the density of liquids is higher than the density of gases.
