The lateral dorsal nucleus is a nucleus of the thalamus.It is the most anterior of the dorsal lateral nuclei. [1] It is also known as the dorsal superficial nucleus. [2]It acts in concert with the anterior nuclei of thalamus.
The thalamic complex is composed of the perithalamus (or prethalamus, previously also known as ventral thalamus), the mid-diencephalic organiser (which forms later the zona limitans intrathalamica (ZLI) ) and the thalamus (dorsal thalamus). [52] [53] The development of the thalamus can be subdivided into three steps. [54]
lateral nuclear group [13] [23] is replaced by posterior region [24] pulvinar [25] anterior pulvinar nucleus [26] lateral pulvinar nucleus [27] medial pulvinar nucleus [28] inferior pulvinar nucleus [29] lateral posterior nucleus [30] belongs to pulvinar; lateral dorsal nucleus [31] (a.k.a. dorsal superficial nucleus) ventral nuclear group [32 ...
In neuroanatomy, the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN; also called the lateral geniculate body or lateral geniculate complex) is a structure in the thalamus and a key component of the mammalian visual pathway. It is a small, ovoid, ventral projection of the thalamus where the thalamus connects with the optic nerve. There are two LGNs, one on the ...
The lateral spinothalamic tract (or lateral spinothalamic fasciculus), is a bundle of afferent nerve fibers ascending through the white matter of the spinal cord, in the spinothalamic tract, carrying sensory information to the brain. It carries pain, and temperature sensory information (protopathic sensation) to the thalamus.
The lateral nuclear group consists of the following: lateral dorsal nucleus; lateral posterior nucleus; pulvinar nuclei; The lateral region of the thalamus which results from trisection by the internal medullary lamina also includes the ventral nuclear group and the lateral and medial geniculate nuclei.
The lateral posterior nucleus is a nucleus of the thalamus. It represents the rostral continuation of the pulvinar (with which it shares comparable connections - the two may be considered a complex). It is thought to be involved in complex sensory integration. [1]
The medial dorsal nucleus (or mediodorsal nucleus of thalamus, dorsomedial nucleus, dorsal medial nucleus, or medial nucleus group) is a large nucleus in the thalamus. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is separated from the other thalamic nuclei by the internal medullary lamina .
