Ventricles

The lateral walls of the unpaired parts of the ventricular system - the third ventricle, the cerebral aqueduct, the fourth ventricle and the spinal canal - can be observed in the medial view of the brain. These are handy landmarks, because the thalamus and hypothalamus lie next to the third ventricle; the midbrain lies next to the aqueduct; the pons, cerebellum, and medulla lie next to the fourth ventricle; and the spinal cord forms the wall of the spinal canal. The lateral ventricles are paired structures that sprout like antlers from the fourth ventricle, which lies under the cortex, is shown in the lower image. The two cerebral hemispheres surround the two lateral ventricles.

A personal request from Barry Thain, Clinical Hypnotist

This is the brochure site for my hypnotherapy practice. I put these pages here because I think hypnosis is all in the brain and, indeed, most of my work involves intervening in the supply of corticotropin releasing hormone from the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis. 

Despite being a hypnotherapy site, these neuro-graphics pages get thousands of visits every month. (I've discovered they are used in Wikipedia so that explains a lot of it.) I hope this page has been useful to you, because it isn't of any use to me; unless ...

I have a hypnosis mp3 site. You would do me a great favour if you visited the site briefly because Google would notice and my site would become easier to find for those who want to download therapy. There's no trap, and you don't have to buy anything. There is a free (and popular, and effective) therapy called Appreciate Yourself that you are welcome to grab if you want to, but really I'd just appreciate the visit.

I'm afraid you'll find this request on all these pages, but you don't have to follow the link every time you see it. Once will be great!

Thanks in advance.

Barry
