Serial transverse sections of the brain stem
Diencephalon and telencephalon.
The level of this section is 7 mm. above that of the last. The lentiform nucleus is sectioned through its mid-portion. Efferent fibers of the globus pallidus pass, as the ansa lenticularis, around the medial margin of the internal capsule.
- Caudate nucleus (tail)
- Posterior limb of internal capsule
- Dorsal lateral nucleus of thalamus
- Claustrum
- External capsule
- Putamen
- External medullary lamina and external division of globus pallidus
- Internal medullary lamina and internal division of globus pallidus
- Posterior part of anterior commissure
- Uncinate fasciculus
- Lamina terminalis and optic recess
- Lateral cerebral fissure
- Orbital gyri
- Cingulate gyrus and sulcus corpus callosum
- Stria terminalis
- Fornix (body)
- Lateral nucleus of thalamus
- Internal medullary lamina of thalamus
- Medial nucleus of thalamus
- Mamillothalamic fasciculus [Vicq d'Azyr]
- Frontal part internal capsule
- Ansa lenticularis
- Tectal part of column of fornix and hypothalamus
- Anterior perforated substance
- Anterior communicating artery
- Olfactory trigone
- Straight gyrus
