| substantia grisea centralis | In general: the predominantly small-celled gray matter adjoining or surrounding the central canal of the spinal cord and the third and fourth ventricles of the brainstem, in particular: the thick sleeve of gray matter surrounding the cerebral sylvian aqueduct in the midbrain, rostrally continuous with the posterior nucleus of the hypothalamus; in sections stained for myelin it stands out from the adjoining tectum and tegmentum by the poverty of its myelinated fibres.

| sulcus centralis | A double-S-shaped fissure extending obliquely upward and backward on the lateral surface of each cerebral hemisphere at the boundary between frontal and parietal lobes. Synonym: sulcus centralis, fissure of Rolando. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus centralis lateralis thalami | The most lateral of the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus. Synonym: nucleus centralis lateralis thalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus medialis centralis thalami | A small cell group in the interthalamic adhesion of the thalamus, occupying the midline region of the internal medullary lamina, between the left and the right paracentral nucleus. Synonym: nucleus medialis centralis thalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fovea centralis | A tiny spot located in the macula that is the area of clearest vision on the retina. (27 Sep 1997) |

| radix lateralis tractus optici | The larger division of the posterior end of the optic tract that terminates in the lateral geniculate body. Synonym: radix lateralis tractus optici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radix medialis tractus optici | The smaller division of the posterior end of the optic tract that disappears under the medial geniculate body. Synonym: radix medialis tractus optici. (05 Mar 2000) |
