Preferred Label : entopeduncular nucleus;
MeSH definition : A portion of the nucleus of ansa lenticularis located medial to the posterior limb
of the internal capsule, along the course of the ansa lenticularis and the inferior
thalamic peduncle or as a separate nucleus within the internal capsule adjacent to
the medial GLOBUS PALLIDUS (NeuroNames, http://rprcsgi.rprc. washington.edu/neuronames/
