Stroke Localization Test
Enter the letter for the matching Answer
| A. * total loss of vision in the right eye; it also produces
a right afferent pupil deficit.
B. * loss of vision in the left
hemifield: contralateral “homonymous” hemianopsia
C. * complete loss of vision in the left hemifield:
contralateral “homonymous” hemianopsia.
D. * Edinger-Westphal nuclei E. * loss of past memoriesF. * right-sided weakness or paralysis of the arm and leg because the frontal lobe is also important for motor movementsG. * All depend on the area it takes place in : Weakness or paralysis of the face, arm, leg, foot or toes
-- Sudden numbness
-- Difficulty walking
-- Difficulty speaking
-- Clumsiness of a hand or arm
-- Weakness or paralysis of eye muscles
H. * Each hemifield is projected onto the nasal
hemiretina of the ipsilateral1 eye and the temporal hemiretina of the contralateral eye
I. * loss of vision in the
lower quadrant of the left hemifield
J. * loss of vision in the temporal half of both visual fields:
bitemporal hemianopsia..... * This kind of damage is most commonly caused by a tumor of the pituitary gland that compresses the chiasm
K. * 6 layers receive inputs from either the ipsilateral or contralateral eye... * left eye project to layers 1, 4 & 6 of the right LGN, and the right eye ganglion cells project to its layer 2, 3 & 5.
L. * The axons of ganglion cells exit the eyes via the optic nerve, partially cross at the optic
chiasm, and form two optic tracts, so that the right and left hemifields reach the left and right hemispheres
M. * loss of vision in the
upper quadrant of the left hemifield
N. * 1) lateral geniculate nucleus = relays visual info to the primary visual cortex; 2) superior colliculus = control orienting eye mvts; 3) hypothalamus = which regs the circadian rhythms; and 4) pretectum = pupillar light reflexO. * These deeper structures receive their blood flow through a unique set of arteries. Because of the characteristics of these arteries, lacunar strokes happen a little bit differently from other strokesP. * Broca's aphasia..... * People with Broca's aphasia have damage to the frontal lobe of the brain.... * Understand speech, just have difficult time speaking backQ. * occurs when one of the arteries that provide blood to the brain's deep structures is blocked...* are smaller arteries in the brain since it goes to deeper structures, so HTN usu causes thisR. * All of the past CxSx, and emotional behavior and dementia.S. * Lateral geniculate nucleus in the thalamusT. * areas on the left side (hemisphere) of the brain (lesion also impairs reading/writing/understanding and expressing language) |
