Preferred Label : stria terminalis;
Uberon definition : White matter structure in the brain consisting of fibers running along the lateral
margin of the ventricular surface of the thalamus. The stria terminalis covers the
thalamostriate vein, marking a line of separation between the thalamus and the caudate
nucleus as seen upon gross dissection of the ventricles of the brain, viewed from
the superior aspect. The stria terminalis extends from the region of the interventricular
foramen to the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle, carrying fibers from the amygdala
to the septal, hypothalamic, and thalamic areas of the brain. It also carries fibers
projecting from these areas back to the amygdala. (Wikipedia:Stria_terminalis);
