It isn't clear all would agree Cerebrum and Telencephalon are equivalent. Is this what we want to declare for BIRNLex? (BB). Nolte (The Human Brain: An Introduction to its Functional Neuroanatomy, 6th ed pg 72, presents a hierarchy where the cerebrum consists of the cerebral hemispheres (plus subcortical structures) and the diencephalon. This is not a term that has much scientific validity, nor, in my opinion, is it worth declaring a definition one way or the other (MM) ing a definition one way or the other (MM) |
