Description: Subcortical brain region consisting of paired gray matter bodies in the dorsal diencephalon and forming part of the lateral wall of the third ventricle of the brain. The thalamus represents the major portion of the diencephalon and is commonly divided into cellular aggregates known as nuclear groups.(MeSH).The dorsal topographic division of the interbrain. The macrodissected adult human thalamus was clearly illustrated by Vesalius in 1543 and the term as defined here was introduced by His in 1893. It includes the traditional epithalamus, dorsal thalamus, and ventral thalamus of Herrick (1910, pp. 494, 498). Also see Kuhlenbeck (1927, Ch. 9) and Jones (1985, p. 87).

Description: Organ component of neuraxis, each instance of which is a large oval mass in the posterior part of some diencephalon adjacent to the lateral wall of some thrid ventricle, containing groups of some nuclei serving as relay centers for sensory impulses and cerebellar and basal nuclear rpojections to some cerebral cortex.
