What else can I help you with?
When you are told that the right precentral gurus of your patients brain was destroyed in a stroke what part of the patient is unable to move Left or right side?
If the right precentral gyrus of the patient's brain was destroyed in a stroke, they would likely have difficulty moving the left side of their body. The precentral gyrus is responsible for controlling voluntary movements on the contralateral side of the body, meaning that damage to the right precentral gyrus would affect movements on the left side.
What precentral gyrus does a stroke effect if there is sensitivity in the right hand?
A stroke affecting the left precentral gyrus would likely lead to sensitivity issues in the right hand. The precentral gyrus is located in the primary motor cortex of the brain and controls voluntary movements on the opposite side of the body.
What is ischemic lesion in the left precentral gyrus?
An ischemic lesion in the left precentral gyrus refers to an area of tissue damage in the motor cortex of the brain caused by reduced blood flow. This can lead to symptoms such as weakness, numbness, or paralysis on the opposite side of the body, as the left precentral gyrus controls movement on the right side. Treatment may involve medications, rehabilitation, or surgery, depending on the severity of the symptoms.
Because of the decussation of sensory nerve fibers the right postcentral gyrus monitors sensations from the left side of the body?
Yes, that is correct. Sensory information from the left side of the body crosses over to the right side of the brain at the level of the spinal cord or brainstem, allowing the right postcentral gyrus to receive and process sensory input from the left side of the body. This phenomenon is known as contralateral representation.
What is the function of the inferior frontal gyrus?
The function of the inferior frontal gyrus the right side is involved in go/no go actions and risk aversion. The left side is important in language production and verb comprehension.
You have been told that the superior and medial part of the right precentral gyrus of your patients brain has been destroyed by a stroke What part of the body is the patient unable to move and why?
motor skills on the right side
Where is the motor cortex that controls voluntary movements of various parts of body located?
Its located in the cortex of the brain, the highest part of the brain. The left side of the cortex controls the right side of the body and vice versa. The actual motor parts are in known as the precentral gyrus. ----just in front of the central sulcus
The motor cortex is located in the?
Its located in the cortex of the brain, the highest part of the brain. The left side of the cortex controls the right side of the body and vice versa. The actual motor parts are in known as the precentral gyrus. ----just in front of the central sulcus
What is Lateralization of functioning?
referring to the specialization in certain functions by each side of the brain,with one side dominant for each activity. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body and vice versa
What side of the head is the human brain found?
The whole skull holds the brain. There are two sides to the brain and each side controls various functions.
What percent of the postcentral gyrus would be affected after a stroke?
The extent of the postcentral gyrus affected after a stroke depends on the size and location of the stroke. If a stroke damages the blood supply to the postcentral gyrus, it can result in sensory deficits on the opposite side of the body. The percentage of the postcentral gyrus affected can vary from a small area to a larger portion depending on the severity of the stroke.
Fibers from the medial side of each eye cross over to the opposite side of the brain at the?
Optic Chiasm
