Synonym: trigonum nervi hypoglossi, eminentia hypoglossi, hypoglossal eminence, trigone of hypoglossal nerve, trigonum hypoglossi, tuberculum hypoglossi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trigone of lateral ventricle | A triangular prominence of the floor of the lateral ventricle at the transition between occipital and temporal horn, continuous rostrally with the collateral eminence and, like the latter, caused by the deep penetration of the collateral sulcus from the ventral surface of the temporal lobe. Synonym: trigonum collaterale, trigone of lateral ventricle, trigonum ventriculi, ventricular trigone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trigone of vagus nerve | A prominence in the floor of the inferior fovea of the fourth ventricle that overlies the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus. Synonym: trigonum nervi vagi, ala cinerea, ashen wing, gray wing, trigone of vagus nerve, va'gi eminentia. (05 Mar 2000) |

| lemniscal trigone | A triangular area on the lateral surface of the caudal half of the mesencephalon, bordered caudally by the slight prominence of the lateral lemniscus, dorsally by the base of the inferior colliculus and the brachium of the superior colliculus, and ventrally by the crus cerebri. Synonym: Reil's triangle, triangle of fillet, trigone of fillet, trigonum lemnisci. (05 Mar 2000) |

| region of olfactory mucosa | The specialised olfactory receptive area that includes the upper one-third of the nasal septum and the lateral wall above the superior concha; it is lined with olfactory mucosa. Synonym: regio olfactoria tunicae mucosae nasi, olfactory region of tunica mucosa of nose, Schultze's membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glomerular layer of olfactory bulb | A layer composed of spherical bodies, called glomeruli, formed by the synapses of mitral cells with the olfactory nerve fibres derived from the cells of the olfactory epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| roots of olfactory tract | Lateral and medial, the two fibre bands that form the caudal continuation of the olfactory tract which, upon diverging, enclose the olfactory tubercle. (05 Mar 2000) |

| olfactory | <physiology> Of, pertaining to, or connected with, the sense of smell; as, the olfactory nerves; the olfactory cells. <anatomy> Olfactory organ, an organ for smelling. In vertebrates the olfactory organs are more or less complicated sacs, situated in the front part of the head and lined with epithelium innervated by the olfactory (or first cranial) nerves, and sensitive to odouriferous particles conveyed to it in the air or in water. Origin: L. Olfactus, p.p. Of olfacere to smell; olere to have a smell + facere = to make. See Odour, and Fact. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| olfactory area | A region at the base of the brain through which numerous small branches of the anterior and middle cerebral arteries (lenticulostriate arteries) enter the depth of the cerebral hemisphere; it is bordered medially by the optic chasm and anterior half of the optic tract, rostrally and laterally by the lateral olfactory stria; its anteromedial part corresponds to the olfactory tubercle. Synonym: substantia perforata anterior, locus perforatus anticus, olfactory area. (05 Mar 2000) |
