Topographical organization of frontal association cortex afferents originating in ventral thalamic nuclei in dog brain.
The frontal associatron cortex involves the prefrontal (PFC) and premotor (PMC) areas which are reached by projections originating in the ventral medial (VM), ventral anterior (VA) and ventral lateral (VL) thalamic nuclei. Afferents arising in particular thalamic nuclei cover various PFC-PMC regions. On the basis of afferents distribution three territories can be distinguished in this cortex. T...
متن کاملDegenerative thalamic hamartoma: CT and MR imaging features.
We describe hamartomas of possible thalamic origin. CT revealed marked calcification in the mass lesion, and MR imaging revealed contrast enhancement. Histologically, outgrowth of the glia was observed, but no neoplastic component was confirmed. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for the cell-adhesion factor N-CAM and negative for polysialic acid.
متن کاملJoint Segmentation of Thalamic Nuclei from a Population of Diffusion Tensor MR Images
Several recent studies explored the use of unsupervised segmentation methods for segmenting thalamic nuclei from diffusion tensor images. These methods provide a plausible segmentation on individual subjects; however, they do not address the problem of consistently identifying the same functional areas in a population. The lack of correspondence between the segmented nuclei make it more difficu...
متن کاملThalamic nuclei after human blunt head injury.
Paraffin-embedded blocks from the thalamus of 9 control patients, 9 moderately disabled, 12 severely disabled, and 10 vegetative head-injured patients assessed using the Glasgow Outcome Scale and identified from the Department of Neuropathology archive. Neurons, astrocytes, macrophages, and activated microglia were differentiated by Luxol fast blue/cresyl violet, GFAP, CD68, and CR3/43 staining...
متن کاملGABA affinity shapes IPSCs in thalamic nuclei.
Precise neural inhibition in thalamocortical circuits is required for the generation of sleep spindles and suppression of hypersynchrony associated with epileptiform activity. Accordingly, the time course of GABA(A) receptor-mediated IPSC events is an important parameter influencing the strength of inhibitory signaling. In the thalamus, two distinct types of IPSC kinetics are observed: thalamoc...
