Neurological anatomy[edit]
Anatomical regions are listed vertically beneath Brain according to typical hierarchies. Functional, connective and developmental regions are listed horizontally in (italicized subscript).
Functional and connective regions defined as systems are categorized at cerebrospinal systems.
