- Is a C – shaped structure that lies on the lateral side of the thalamus?
- Stria terminalis and thalamostriate vein lie between thalamus and caudate nucleus?
- Together with putamen it forms the ventral striatum?
- Its head forms the floor of the anterior horn of the lateral ventricle?
- Caudate nucleus nucleus has motor and behavioral functions?
- It is heavily innervated by serotoninergic neurons from substantia nigra?
21. Anatomy of the basal ganglia (I)
- Dorsal striatum = Putamen + Caudate nucleus?
- Dorsal striatum = Putamen + Globus pallidus
- Lentiform nucleus = Putamen + Globus pallidus ?
- Ventral striatum = Nucleus accumbens + Olfactory tubercle
- Ventral striatum = Nucleus accumbens + Claustrum
- Ventral pallidum = GPi + GPe?
