| 1. | The internal capsule contains the explosive and a primer / detonator tube.
|
| 2. | Possible sites of lesions include the thalamus, internal capsule, and basal ganglia.
|
| 3. | These are the features of a right sided stroke possibly within the internal capsule.
|
| 4. | The pars reticulata and the internal globus pallidus are separated by the internal capsule.
|
| 5. | The primary motor cortex sends its axons through the posterior limb of the internal capsule.
|
| 6. | It can occur from damage to the thalamocortical fibers in the posterior limb of the internal capsule.
|
| 7. | Tertiary neuronal axons then travel to the primary sensory cortex via the posterior limb of the internal capsule.
|
| 8. | However decorticate rigidity can be caused by bleeding in the internal capsule which causes damage to upper motor neurons.
|
| 9. | From there, tertiary neurons ascend via the posterior limb of the internal capsule and end in the primary sensory cortex.
|
| 10. | The pallidus is near the optic tract and the internal capsule, a part of the brain that controls motor movements.
