Question
- Brain MRI showed restricted diffusion in specific areas of the brain, including the splenium of the corpus callosum, left parietal white matter, left basal ganglia, and anterior right cingulate gyrus.
Please higlight and explain these areas in MRI

Group of answer choices H.M. had profound anterograde amnesia H.M.’s non-declarative memory was intact. H.M. was unable to remember clinicians he met after the surgery, even though they worked with him for many years. It demonstrated that the hippocampus is critical for long-term consolidation of declarative memories. H.M.’s intellectual functions, as measured by intelligence tests, were significantly impaired following surgery Explain why you chose the answer choice by providing a complete explanation. If you can give a couple of sentence or a paragraoh for your rationale, that would help me understand the answer choice.arrow_forward

The location of the synapses of descending cortical input to the cerebellum, serving as a relay station, is the: pons. Cortical input to the cerebellum is relayed through the pons in the form of pontocerebellar fibers, which synapse in the pontine nuclei. From there, fibers cross over (decussate) and enter the cerebellum.arrow_forward
