brain stem removal tips

Now that you have been sensitized to this lab, here are some fast tips:

  • Clear small vessels from the sulci of both hemispheres (fingers work best).
  • Horizontal sections: for this hemisphere leave the brain stem intact.
  • Coronal sections: on this hemisphere, 'cut off' the brainstem at the superior colliculus (see below).
  • When finished, put the sections in order and bag them for storage in the bucket.
