The anatomy of the brain involves key regions including the brain stem, cerebellum, lobes of the cerebral cortex, and specific glands (the pituitary, for example) needed to maintain life and health.

A brain tumor can be diagnosed using imaging tests that view the structure of the brain, along with a biopsy, which can carefully assess a sample of a suspected brain tumor under a microscope.

Soldiers from an elite unit of the Korean People’s Army dispatched to the region have not started fighting alongside Russian troops, but officials predicted they would help in an anticipated ...

“Genetic variants associated with larger brain volumes in key brain regions also increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease, while variants linked to smaller brain volumes in key regions are ...

By Michael Schwirtz Julian E. Barnes and Eric Schmitt Several thousand North Korean soldiers have arrived in Russia’s western Kursk region, where they are expected to participate in a coming ...
