Part 1 Introduction: development and topography of the nervous system - development, general topography in the adult; neurons and neuroglia, the neuron, neuroglia, peripheral nervous system - structure of peripheral nerves, degeneration and regeneration after injury, autonomic nervous system. Part 2 Regional anatomy: spinal cord - gross anatomy, grey matter and nuclei, intrinsic spinal mechanisms and motor control, white matter and tracts; brainstem - transition from spinal cord to medulla oblongata, general topography of the brainstem, internal structure of the brainstem; the reticular formation. Part 3 Applied anatomy: cranial nerves - components, the hypoglossal (XII) nerve, the accessory (XI) nerve, the vagus (X) and glossopharyngeal (IX) nerves, the vestibulocochlear (VIII) nerve, the facial (VII) nerve, the abducent (VI) trochlear (IV) and oculomotor (III) nerves, the trigeminal (V) nerve; cerebellum - general structure, cerebellar cortex, cerebellar peduncles, afferent connexions, efferent connexions; diencephalon and internal capsule - thalamus, subthalamus, epithalamus, hypothalamus; corpus striatum - topography, striatal connexions, functions of the basal ganglia; olfactory and limbic systems - olfactory pathways, the limbic system; visual system - the retina, visual pathway, image projection and processing; cerebral cortex - cytology and cytoarchitecture, cerebral white matter, functional localization, general considerations; meninges, cerebrospinal fluid and cerebral ventricles - intracranial meninges, spinal meninges, cerebrospinal fluid, blood - brain barrier, blood supply of the central nervous system - arteries of the brain, venous drainage of the brain, blood vessels of the spinal cord. Part 4 Neurotransmitters: neurotransmitter pathways of the central nervous system - monoamine systems, cholinergic systems, amino acid systems, peptide systems.
