Dorsal branch to corpus callosum

Ramus corporis callosi dorsalis

Definition

The dorsal branch to corpus callosum (or splenial, or posterior pericallosal branch) is a branch of the medial occipital artery, for the splenium of corpus callosum. It anastomoses with the pericallosal artery and may not be present if the ACA wraps around the corpus callosum.
