Stria medullaris of thalamus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The stria medullaris, also known as stria medullaris thalami, is a fiber bundle containing afferent fibers from the septal nuclei, lateral preoptico-hypothalamic region, and anterior thalamic nuclei to the habenula. It forms a horizontal ridge on the medial surface of the thalamus.
It projects to the habenular nuclei.[1]
It is considered part of the epithalamus in NeuroNames, but part of the thalamus in Terminologia Anatomica.
