Thalamus - Physiopathology
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Thalamus'Paired bodies containing mostly gray substance and forming part of the lateral wall of the third ventricle of the brain. The thalamus represents the major portion of the diencephalon and is commonly divided into cellular aggregates known as nuclear groups. Common names: Thalamus |

Cortical deactivation induced by subcortical network dysfunction in limbic seizures.
12 Oct 2009 
Normal human consciousness may be impaired by two possible routes: direct reduced function in widespread cortical regions or indirect disruption of subcortical activating systems. The route through which temporal lobe limbic seizures impair ... Read more...
29 Sep 2009 In this study, the authors performed deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (SACC) in a patient with a history of bipolar disorder. After a right thalamic stroke, intractable depression without mood elevation or a ... Read more...
Gray matter changes related to chronic posttraumatic headache.
20 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Although up to 15% of patients with whiplash injury develop chronic headache, the basis and mechanisms of this posttraumatic headache are not well understood. METHODS: Thirty-two patients with posttraumatic headache following whiplash ... Read more...
