Collateral Circulation • Circle of Willis • Variation • Leptomeningeal Collateral
Cerebral Autoregulation • Maintenance of blood flow during variation in blood pressure • Change in blood flow related to metabolic activity
Mechanism for Cerebral Autoregulation? • Myogenic • Neurogenic • Metabolic
Measurement of Cerebral Blood Flow • Seymour Kety • Delivery of blood flow to given wt of brain per time period • 50ml/100grams/minute Brain takes 12-15% of cardiac output
Internal Carotid Artery • Divisions: cervical, petrous, cavernous, infraclinoid, supraclinoid • Branches: meningohypophyseal trunk • dorsal meningeal artery, tentorial artery, inferior hypophyseal • artery of the inferior cavernous sinus • capsular arteries of McConnell
Internal Carotid Artery • Supraclinoid • Branches • Ophthalmic • Posterior communicating • Anterior choroidal Bifurcation
Middle Cerebral Artery • Variation • Divisions (M1-M4) • Lenticulostriate arteries • medial • lateral • putamen, caudate, sup internal capsule
Anterior Cerebral Artery • Variation • Divisions (A1-A4) • Anterior communicating artery • Lamina terminalis, septal region, fornix, preoptic/hypothalamus Recurrent artery of Heubner Anterior putamen, pallidum and internal capsule
