| thalamic nuclei | Several groups of nuclei in the thalamus that serve as the major relay centres for sensory impulses in the brain. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| trigeminal nuclei | Nuclei of the trigeminal nerve situated in the brainstem. They include the nucleus of the spinal trigeminal tract (trigeminal nucleus, spinal), the principal sensory nucleus, the mesencephalic nucleus, and the motor nucleus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tuberal nuclei | Two or three small, encapsulated, round or ovoid clusters of cells in the lateral hypothalamic area along the surface of the tuber cinereum; their connections and functional significance are unknown. Synonym: nuclei tuberales, lateral tuberal nuclei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculum nuclei cuneati | tubercle of cuneate nucleus |
| tuberculum nuclei gracilis | tubercle of gracile nucleus |
| Klein-Gumprecht shadow nuclei | Shadow nuclei in degenerating lymphoidocytes and macrolymphocytes in leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cervical nuclei | Diffusely arranged nucleus located in the dorsal portions of the lateral funiculus in about cervical levels C1-C3; synaptic station for the spinocervicothalamic tract. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral tuberal nuclei | Two or three small, encapsulated, round or ovoid clusters of cells in the lateral hypothalamic area along the surface of the tuber cinereum; their connections and functional significance are unknown. Synonym: nuclei tuberales, lateral tuberal nuclei. (05 Mar 2000) |
