SUGGESTED READING

1) Neuroanatomy through Clinical Cases by Hal Blumenfeld.

The arterial supply of the cerebral hemispheres is discussed in Chapter 10, Pages 369-73. See also Figures 10.2 through 10.10. The course of the internal carotid, as it passes through the cavernous sinus in close relation to several cranial nerves, is shown in Figure 13.11. The venous drainage of the hemisphere is discussed on Pages 386-7.
For a discussion of berry aneurysms, see Page 146 and Figure 5.20.
The blood supply of the spinal cord is covered on Pages 219-20.

2) Fundamental Neuroscience for Basic and Clinical Applications by Duane E. Haines. Third Edition.

The blood supply of the brain is covered in the first part of Chapter 8, starting on Page 124. The venous sinuses and venous drainage of the brain is discussed, starting on Page 134.
The arterial supply and venous drainage of the spinal cord is covered later in the same chapter, beginning on Page 137.
In addition, Haines has more detailed description of the blood supply to individual regions of the brain, as follows:
- medulla - Pages 175-178 and Figures 11-16,17.
- pons and cerebellum - Page 184 and Figures 12-7, 12-18.
- midbrain - Page 204 and Figures 13-17,18.
- diencephalon - Pages 241-3 and Figures 15-16,17,18.
- telencephalon - Page 251-2 and Figures 16-11,12.

3) Clinically Oriented Anatomy, Fourth Edition by Keith L. Moore and Arthur F. Dalley.

4) Principles of Neural Science by Eric R. Kandel, James H. Schwartz and Thomas M. Jessel.

The circulation is treated in Appendix C, starting on Page 1303. It is a reasonably short chapter with a definite clinical orientation. It is quite good, so read it if you can. His Table C-1 makes, with specifics, the point illustrated in FIGURE 8-1.
