The middle cerebral artery has 4 segments: M1 runs from the internal carotid artery to the bifurcation, M2 runs from the bifurcation to the circular sulcus of the insula, M3 runs from the circular sulcus to the superficial aspect of the sylvian fissure, and M4 are cortical branches that extend from segment M3.
