Functional: High correlation in activity between regions.
Effective: Information flow takes place between two areas although their levels of activity may be different.
Structural/anatomical: Physical neuronal links between two regions, typically white matter tracts. |

| Internal carotid artery enters cranial cavity and divides into anterior and middle cerebral artery. Anterior arteries are joined by the anterior commuincating artery. Left and right vertebral arteries form the basilar artery branches into the left and right posterior cerebral arteries. Posterior cerebral arteries join the internal carotid system by means of posterior communicating arteries. |
