[Projections of different areas of the putamen on tha thalamic nuclei].
In the work presented the projections of rostral and caudal areas of the putamen on the thalamic nuclei were studied. The analysis of the frontal serial sections from the cat brains impregnated according to the methods of Nauta-Gygax, Finck-Haimer, Wiitanen made it possible to state that all the areas of the putamen radiate a great number of axons to the lateral thalamic nuclei--ventro-anterior, ventro-lateral, lateral-posterior, and ventro-posterior-medial. Only the rostral area of the putamen sends a mass of fibres to the nuclei of the median thalamus--medial-dorsal, central, central-lateral and ventro-posterior-lateral. On the other hand, in the posterior thalamic nucleus a great number of axons only from caudal area of the putamen have their terminals.
