The connections between the terminal nerve and the olfactory system have been extensively studied in human embryos. olfactory nerve fibers enter the brain at stage 17, fibers from the vomeronasal organ and fibers of the terminal nerve enter the brain at stages 17 and 18. [9] During prenatal development some of the ganglion cells are lost. [7]
The stria terminalis (or terminal stria) is a structure in the brain consisting of a band of fibers running along the lateral margin of the ventricular surface of the thalamus. Serving as a major output pathway of the amygdala , the stria terminalis runs from its centromedial division to the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus .
The numbering of the cranial nerves is based on the order in which they emerge from the brain and brainstem, from front to back. [2] The terminal nerves (0), olfactory nerves (I) and optic nerves (II) emerge from the cerebrum, and the remaining ten pairs arise from the brainstem, which is the lower part of the brain. [3]
The anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is one of a pair of cerebral arteries that supplies oxygenated blood to most midline portions of the frontal lobes and superior medial parietal lobes of the brain. The two anterior cerebral arteries arise from the internal carotid artery and are part of the circle of Willis .

The cistern of lamina terminalis is one of the subarachnoid cisterns.It is situated (depending upon the source) either superior to the lamina terminalis, [1] or rostral/anterior to the lamina terminalis and anterior commissure between the two frontal lobes of the cerebrum. [2]
T 1-weighted images are useful for visualizing normal anatomy. T 2-weighted (T2W) images: CSF is light, but fat (and thus white matter) is darker than with T 1. T 2-weighted images are useful for visualizing pathology. [26] Diffusion-weighted images (DWI): DWI uses the diffusion of water molecules to generate contrast in MR images.
The lamina terminalis is a thin layer that forms the median portion of the wall of the forebrain.It stretches from the interventricular foramen (foramen of Monro) to the recess at the base of the optic stalk (optic nerve) and contains the vascular organ of the lamina terminalis, which regulates the osmotic concentration of the blood.
