The Ascending Reticular Activating System from Pontine Reticular Formation to the Thalamus in the Human Brain

Introduction: Action of the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) on the cerebral cortex is responsible for achievement of consciousness. In this study, we attempted to reconstruct the lower single component of the ARAS from the reticular formation (RF) to the thalamus in the normal human bra...
