There are four basic components - the navigation bar, the case description, the scroll bar, and the answer choices.
The navigation bar basically allows you to go forward a question, back a question, or clear your answer.
The case description gives you all the information you need to know to determine the lesion.
With the answer choices - simply click the one you think is the right answer to have it 'evaluated'. The result will appear below the answer choices.
In the case of the scroll bar, given that there is a lot of information presented in each case study, some times the question will not appear in its entirety. This will require you to click on the bar and drag a little to see the remaining portion of the case study (whether it's additional information, or more illustration).
In summary
1) Read the question - scroll at your discretion
2) Use the clues to formulate an answer.
3) If the answer is wrong, you may chose to clear the answer (optional)
4) Read over the explanation which results when you've clicked on your answer.
5) Read over the extended explanation upon selected the correct answer
(optional)
6) Move on to the next question, try the question over again, or go back a
question.
Incidentally, the left panel of the page features an index of all the questions
available in the Case Study portion of the neuroanatomy web site. This allows
you the option of jumping around from case to case - particularly useful if you
haven't memorized all 48 case studies.
