By this rod it is easy to determine the position ofthe following points in the antero-posterior plane: (1) the dorsum sellse ;(2) the olivary eminence and optic groove ; (3) the position of the right andleft frontal poles of the brain. When the interior of the skull is artificiallyilluminated, the anterior end of the cribriform plate can also be the human skull is inverted (see fig. 2) and the rod pushed within itto an extent of 130-14-0 mm., t
