Intracranial CNS Disorders . Brain Disease . Brain Disorder . CNS Disorder, Intracranial . Encephalon Disease . Encephalopathies . Intracranial CNS Disorder . Intracranial Central Nervous System Disorders . Brain Pathology . Pathologic conditions affecting the BRAIN, which is composed of the intracranial components of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. This includes (but is not limited to) the CEREBRAL CORTEX; intracranial white matter; BASAL GANGLIA; THALAMUS; HYPOTHALAMUS; BRAIN STEM; and CEREBELLUM. . 1.00

Brain. Encephalon . Brains . Encephalons . The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. . 0.41
Cerebellum. Corpus Cerebelli . Parencephalon . Cerebelli, Corpus . Cerebellums . Cerebellus, Corpus . Corpus Cerebellus . Parencephalons . The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills. . 0.36
Lissencephaly. Broad Gyri of Cerebrum . Large Gyri of Cerebrum . Lissencephalia . Macrogyria . Agyrias . Lissencephalies . Macrogyrias . Pachygyrias . Agyria . Pachygyria . A smooth brain malformation of the CEREBRAL CORTEX resulting from the abnormal location of developing neurons during corticogenesis. It is characterized by an absence of normal convoluted indentations on the surface of the brain (agyria), or fewer and shallower indentations (pachygryia). There is a reduced number of cortical layers, typically 4 instead of 6, resulting in a thickened cortex, and reduced cerebral white matter that is a reversal of the normal ratio of cerebral white matter to cortex. . 0.36
