Vertical section through the cerebrum and basic ganglia to show the relation of the latter. Labels: co, cerebral convolutions; c, corpus callosum; v.l., lateral ventricle; f, fornix; vIII., third ventricle; n.c., caudate nucleus; th, optic thalamus; n.l., lenticular nucleus; c.i., internal capsule; c.l., claustrum; c.e., external capsule; m, corpus mammillare; t.o., optic tract; s.t.t., stria terminalis; n.a., nucleus amygdala; cm, soft commissure.

The Cerebrum and Basic Ganglia of the Brain

Vertical section through the cerebrum and basic ganglia to show the relation of the latter. Labels:…

Diagram to show the relative position of several motor tracts in their course from the cortex to the crus. The section through the convolutions is vertical; that through the internal capsule, I, C, horizontal; that through the crus again vertical. C, N, caudate nucleus; O, H, optic thalamus; L2 and L3, middle and outer part of lenticular nucleus; f, a, l, face, arm, and leg fibers. The words in italic indicate corresponding cortical centers.

Motor Tracts of the Brain

Diagram of the motor tract as shown in a diagrammatic horizontal section through the cerebral hemispheres Crura, Pons, and Medulla. Fr., frontal lobe; Oc., occipital lobe; AF., ascending frontal, AP., ascending parietal convolutions; PCF., pre-central fissure in front of the ascending frontal, AP., ascending parietal convolution; FR., fissure of Rolando; IPF., interparietal fissure, a section of crus is lettered on the left side. SN., substantia nigra; Py., pyramidal motor fiber, which on the right is shown as continuous lines converging to pass through the posterior limb of IC. internal capsule ( the knee or elbow of which is shown thus) upwards into the hemisphere and downwards through the pons to cross the medulla in the anterior pyramids.
