title: [Longitudinal density of the vascular network of the human thalamus].
abstract: The longitudinal density of the vascular net in twenty human thalamuses was measured. In all cases the lumen of the arterial branches of the posterior communicating artery and the posterior cerebral artery were measured, and in six cases the lumen of the branches of the anterior choroidal artery. The average longitudinal density of the examined arterial branches in the thalamic vascular net was 5.550 +/- 0.170 mm2. The morphologic analysis of the frontal thalamic section revealed highly anisotropic thalamic blood vessels.
