  • Inspect: Grooves indicating herniation? Hemorrhages?
  • Dissect the basilar artery and circle of Willis, either before or after separation from the brain.[notes 1] Look mainly for thromboses.
  • Separate the brainstem, cerebellum and cerebrum, which may be done by first separating the former two together from the cerebrum. Slice each part, looking for hemorrhages and/or infarcts.

Notes

  1. The arteries of the skull base are preferably dissected after separation from the brain if there is a need to demonstrate the case.
