The Motor System
• The motor system is organized hierarchically: the
spinal cord, brainstem and forebrain contain
successively more complex motor circuits
• The primary motor cortex controls voluntary
movement; it projects to the brainstem and
spinal cord motor neurons (lower motor neurons)
via the corticobulbar and corticospinal tract
respectively
• The activity of the motor cortex and brainstem is
influenced by the basal ganglia and cerebellum
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-28-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Primary Motor Cortex
• Located in the precentral gyrus of the frontal
lobe
• Posterior limit: central sulcus, which separates
the precentral gyrus from the postcentral gyrus
(primary somatosensory cortex)
• Anterior limit: precentral sulcus
• Inferior limit: lateral sulcus (Sylvius)
• Contiguous with the paracentral lobule on the
medial aspect of the cerebral hemisphere

The Primary Motor Cortex
• There is a precise somatotopic representation
of the different body parts in the primary motor
cortex, with the foot and leg areas located close
to the midline, and the head and face areas
located laterally on the convexity of the cerebral
hemisphere (motor homunculus)
• The size of the cortical representation for a
specific body part is proportional to the
complexity of the movements performed by that
particular body part (e.g. the surface of the hand
area is significantly larger than that of the foot
area)

The Corticospinal Tract
•
•
•
•
•
•
The corticospinal tract (CST) is a massive collection of axons originating
in the giant pyramidal cells (Betz), in the layer V of the primary motor
cortex
The axons of the CST converge in the posterior limb of the internal
capsule
At the level of the midbrain, the CST occupies the ventral aspect of the
cerebral peduncle; the fibers continue their descent through the ventral
pons and ventral medulla oblongata
The axons that synapse with motor neurons in the (mostly) contralateral
cranial nerve nuclei (III, IV, VII, IX, X, XI, XII) form the corticobulbar
tract
At the level of the lower medulla oblongata, most (ca. 80%) of the
corticospinal axons cross over to the contralateral side (pyramidal
decussation), and then continue their descent through the brainstem and
spinal cord as the lateral corticospinal tract
The CST axons that do not cross at the medulla level continue their travel
down the spinal cord as the ventral corticospinal tract; most of these
fibers cross over to the contralateral side shortly before reaching their
target, the lower motor neurons, located in the anterior horn of the spinal
cord

The Basal Ganglia
• The basal ganglia (BG) are the principal
component of a family of subcortical circuits
linking the thalamus with the cerebral cortex
• BG play a major role in the initiation of voluntary
movement, and they also participate in cognitive
functions, mood and non-motor behavior
Surgical Planning Laboratory

http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia
•
The main subdivisions of the basal ganglia are:
1. Striatum
2. Putamen
3. Globus pallidus (with two functionally
distinct parts: external and internal pallidal
segment)
4. Substantia nigra
5. Subthalamic nucleus
Surgical Planning Laboratory

The Basal Ganglia
•
•
The Striatum is composed of:
1. Caudate nucleus
2. Putamen
3. Ventral striatum (including Nucleus
accumbens)
The Striatum is the major input nucleus to the
basal ganglia
Surgical Planning Laboratory

http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia
• The C-shaped Caudate nucleus is located
medially and forms part of the wall of the lateral
ventricle
• The head of the caudate nucleus is located
above the anterior Substantia perforata and it is
separated from the Putamen by the anterior limb
of the internal capsule
• The Putamen lies laterally to the Caudate
nucleus and medially to the Insula
Surgical Planning Laboratory

http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia
• The Pallidum (Globus pallidus) consists of two
functionally distinct subdivisions: the external
(GPe) and internal (GPi) pallidal segment
• The internal pallidal segment (GPi) represents
one of the major output nuclei of the basal
ganglia
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-42-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia
• The Subthalamic nucleus (STN) is located
between the thalamus (cranially) and the anterior
part of the Substantia nigra (caudally)
• The STN is the only component of the basal
ganglia sending excitatory output
Surgical Planning Laboratory

http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia
•
•
The Substantia nigra (SN) is located in the
rostral midbrain
SN has two histologically and functionally
distinct components:
1. Pars compacta (dorsally) - contains
dopaminergic neurons
2. Pars reticularis (ventrally) - contains
GABA-ergic neurons
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-44-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Basal Ganglia - Function
GPi sends inhibitory projections
to the thalamus (ventral anterior
nucleus). The thalamus, in turn,
sends excitatory projections to
the cortex. The subthalamic
nucleus sends excitatory output
to GPi.The direct pathway
facilitates movement by directly
inhibiting the GPi, and thus
disinhibiting the thalamus (ventral
anterior nucleus).The indirect
pathway inhibits movement, by
inhibiting the GPe. This results in
a decreased inhibition of the GPi
and of the subtalamic nucleus,
which, in turn results in an
increased inhibition on the
thalamocortical projections.

The Visual System
• The retina contains photoreceptor cells (rods and
cones)
• The rods are responsible for the detection of dim
light, whereas the cones mediate color vision
• The retina output originates in the ganglion cells
• The visual stimulus is transmitted from
photoreceptor cells to the ganglion cells via an
intricate network of interneurons
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-49-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Visual System
• The retinal image is inversed
• Via the Optic nerves, the retina projects to the
Lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus, as
well as to the Pretectal area of the midbrain
(responsible for pupillary reflexes) and the
Superior colliculus (responsible for saccadic
eye movements)
• In the Optic chiasm, the optic nerve fibers
originating in the nasal hemiretinae cross over to
the contralateral Optic tract, whereas the fibers
originating in the temporal hemiretinae do not
cross over
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-50-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Visual System
• From the Lateral geniculate nucleus, the visual
information is projected to the primary visual
cortex via the Optic radiation
• The neurons in the primary visual cortex are
organized in columns, which in turn are
connected via horizontal links
• A column contains neurons with neighboring
receptive fields

The Visual System
• Lesions of specific segments of the visual
system produce typical visual field defects - see

Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
The limbic system (aka the limbic lobe) comprises
several phylogenetically older structures
centered around the brainstem:
1. Cingulate gyrus
2. Parahippocampal gyrus
3. Hippocampus (hippocampal formation)
4. Amygdaloid complex
5. Parts of Hypothalamus
6. Nucleus accumbens (part of ventral
striatum)
7. Orbitofrontal cortex
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-54-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
• The Cingulate gyrus (CG) lies on the medial
aspect of the cerebral hemisphere, above the
Corpus callosum, from which it is separated by
the Sulcus of corpus callosum
• CG is limited superiorly by the Cingulate sulcus;
inferiorly, it is contiguous with Indusium griseum
(a thin layer of primitive cortex covering the
Corpus callosum)
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-55-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
• The Hippocampus is located in the depth of the temporal
lobe; on coronal sections, its shape resembles that of a
sea horse, and this is where it derives its name from
• The Hippocampus is consists of the following substructures: Dentate gyrus, Hippocampus proper
(Amon’s horn), Subiculum and Entorhinal cortex
• The Uncus is the anterior, enlarged portion of the
Hippocampus; the tail of the Dentate gyrus separates the
inferior portion of the Uncus into the Uncinate gyrus
(anterior) and Intralimbic gyri (posterior)
• Note: the Hippocampus plays a major role in encoding of
long-term memory, and contrary to earlier views, does not
appear to participate significantly in the processing of
emotions
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-56-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
• The Amygdaloid complex (AC) represents a
group of subcortical nuclei located just in front of
the Hippocampus
• The AC receives input from subcortical areas
concerned with the somatic expression of
emotions (Hypothalamus and brain stem nuclei),
via the Basolateral nucleus, and sends output
to cortical areas concerned with the cognitive
aspects of emotion via the Central nucleus
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-57-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
• The Nucleus accumbens (NACC) is located at the
convergence between the head of the Caudate nucleus
and Putamen, just lateral to Septum pellucidum
• The histology and connectivity pattern of the NACC is very
similar to that of the other components of the Striatum
• The majority of the NACC neurons are GABA-ergic
medium spiny neurons
• Major input to the NACC originates in the Ventral
tegmental area (Dopaminergic), prefrontal cortex,
Amygaloid complex and Hippocampus
• The NACC projects back to the prefrontal cortex via the
Dorsomedial thalamic nucleus
• The NACC is thought to play a major role in reward and
addiction; the state of activity in the NACC appears to be
regulated by the dopaminergic projections from the Ventral
tegmental area
Surgical Planning Laboratory
-58-
http://www.slicer.org
Brigham and Women’s Hospital
The Limbic System
• The Orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) lies just above
the orbital roof, at the base of the frontal lobe
• The olfactory and the orbital sulci divide the
surface of the OFC into four gyri: Gyrus rectus,
Medial orbital gyrus, Anterior orbital gyrus,
Posterior orbital gyrus and Lateral orbital
gyrus (Note: there are many antomical variants
of the OFC, which may substantially differ from
the above description)
