Abstract

<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Hippocampal volume reduction in children with chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome is associated with cognitive impairment"</p><p>http://www.behavioralandbrainfunctions.com/content/3/1/54</p><p>Behavioral and brain functions : BBF 2007;3():54-54.</p><p>Published online 23 Oct 2007</p><p>PMCID:PMC2173902.</p><p></p> A three dimensional reconstruction of images (a) in which lines indicate the position of the horizontal plane (b), sagittal plane (c), and coronal plane (d) is shown. The arrow in b indicates the best-fit line along the white matter separating the amygdala from the putamen; the arrow in c represents the white matter that forms the ventral border of the rostral amygdala. A, Amygdala; EC, entorhinal cortex; H, hippocampus; PU, putamen; TLV, temporal horn of the lateral ventricle; WM, subamygdaloid white matter. Figure reproduced with permission from [37].
