Figure 1. 3D Views of Hippocampus in the Brain. The hippocampal formation is a bilateral structure sandwiched between the cerebral cortex and the thalamus. Figure 1 depicts a reconstruction of the Anatomy of hippocampus ( radiology ) 1. Anatomy hippocampus 2. introduction • Hippocampus is a curved structure on the medial aspect of temporal lobe that bulges into floor of temporal horn. • Hippocampus - seahorse • Curved shape which resembles a shape of a seahorse. 3. Meta?analytic and functional connectivity evidence from functional magnetic resonance imaging for an anterior to posterior gradient of function along the hippocampal axis. Cheryl L. Grady; Version of Record online: 07 October 2019 hippocampal tail continues as the subsplenial gyri (10). Fig. 2 Anatomy of the hippocampal formation at the level of the hippocampal body on 3-T coronal T2. The hippocampal formation consists of the cornu ammonis or hippocampus proper, which can histologically be divided in the four Sommer sectors CA1-CA4, and the dentate gyrus (DG). The hippocampus, Latin for seahorse, is named for its shape.It is part of a system that directs many bodily functions: the limbic system.This system is located in the brain's medial temporal lobe The anatomy and functions of the different components of the limbic system will first be described individually, followed by a discussion of the system as a whole. A. Hippocampal Formation. The hippocampal formation is a phylogenetically old part of the cerebral cortex located within the temporal lobe. Like the insular cortex, the hippocampal This chapter outlines the anatomy of the hippocampal formation, beginning with issues of nomenclature and definition. It compares and contrasts the picture of hippocampal anatomy obtained from studies of the rat with that of the monkey. It describes the extensive cortical connections of the entorhinal cortex in the macaque monkey and the emerging prominence of adjacent related brain regions The term hippocampus minor fell from use in anatomy textbooks, and was officially removed in the Nomina Anatomica of 1895. Today, the structure is just called the hippocampus, with the term Cornu Ammonis surviving in the names of the hippocampal subfields CA1-CA4. Relation to limbic system occurs throughout adulthood. The hippocampus is involved in physio- and pathological processes, like learning and memory, Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy. For these reasons, the hippocampus is one of the most studied and characterized regions of the mammalian brain. This book covers all the aspects of the hippocampus; its anatomy, histology, A survey of the anatomy of the hippocampal formation, with emphasis on the septotemporal organization of its intrinsic and extrinsic connections. (PDF 906 kb) Supplementary information S2 (box The limbic system is a term for a set of brain structures including the hippocampus and amygdala and anterior thalamic nuclei and a limbic cortex that support a variety of functions including emotion, behavior and long term memory. The structures of the brain described by the limbic system are closely associated with the olfactory structures The limbic system is a term for a set of brain structures incl
