Medial hypothalamic nuclei in the macaque (Macaca mulatta) brain.
The term 'medial hypothalamus' is used here for the region situated between the anterior hypothalamus and mamillary body (without the lateral hypothalamic area). The paper is based on a series from the macaque brain in three principal planes and stained by the Weigert-Wolters, Klüver-Barrera, Nissl, and Schultze methods. The following parts have been differentiated in the medial hypothalamus: the ventromedial, dorsomedial, dorsal, dorsocaudal, and infundibular nuclei.
