thalami

One of the most unusual findings of our scans was that while the nuns were resting (not praying), the activity in their thalami (there are actually two, one on the left and one on the right) was asymmetrical, with one side more active than the other.

It has been shown that the brain function pattern changes throughout the first year of life, with initial increases in the sensorimotor cortex, thalami, brain stem, and cerebellar vermis.

One of these, a double mass, occupies a central position between the hemispheres, and is called the _optic thalami_.

At the junction of the roof and anterior wall of the ventricle, and situated between the thalami behind and the columns of the fornix in front, is the interventricular foramen (foramen of Monro) through which the third communicates with the lateral ventricles.

—The third ventricle is a median cleft between the two thalami.

The lateral portions of its lower surface rest upon the thalami, while its medial portion is in contact with the epithelial roof of the third ventricle.

From its posterior half are given off a number of small branches, the postero-medial ganglionic branches, which, with similar vessels from the posterior cerebral, pierce the posterior perforated substance and supply the medial surface of the thalami and the walls of the third ventricle.

—The postero-medial ganglionic branches (Fig. 519) are a group of small arteries which arise at the commencement of the posterior cerebral artery: these, with similar branches from the posterior communicating, pierce the posterior perforated substance, and supply the medial surfaces of the thalami and the walls of the third ventricle.
