What is Blood supply of primary somatosensory cortex?
Majority: Middle cerebral artery Superior inch: Anterior cerebral artery
Why middle cerebral artery stroke is more common than anterior cerebral artery or posterior cerebral artery stroke?
because it is in continuity with internal carotid artry, usually embolus lodges there.
Both the anterior and middle cerebral arteries arise from what arteries?
I beileve (Looking in my Hole's anatomy & physiology text) that the anterior cerebral branches off the middle cerebral, which branches from the posterior communicating artery. Or it circles around to the anterior communicating artery. They all form the cerebral arterial circle.
What is the blood supply to Wernicke's area?
middle cerebral artery, inferior division
Blood supply of motor speech area?
The motor speech area, specifically Broca's area, is primarily supplied by branches of the middle cerebral artery, such as the superior division of the middle cerebral artery. Interruption of blood supply to this area can lead to expressive aphasia, or difficulty with speech production.
What do anterior and middle cerebral arteries arise from?
The anterior and posterior cerebral arteries are both branches of the internal carotid artery
What arteries supply blood to the anterior and middle portion of the brain?
Blood supply to the brain is derived from branches of the carotid arteries. The anterior and middle portions are supplied predominantly by Anterior cerebral artery and Middle cerebral artery. Both are branches of the Internal carotid artery.
Which are the regions of the brain occupied by Left MCA?
That is called the left middle cerebral artery (MCA)
Is infarct the fatty deposit of an artery?
No it's called plaque.
What are the two pairs of arteries arising from the internal carotid artery?
1) maxillary artery 2) superficial temporal artery
What is the blood supply to broca's area?
The left middle cerebral artery supplies blood to broca's area.
Can Post cerebral artery be involved in Moyamoya?
From what I just read about Moya-Moya disease surgery, it sounds as though the middle cerebral artery is often bypassed with the temporal artery to give better blood flow. This procedure is well known at Stanford University in California.
