Atlas of estrogen-concentrating cells in the central nervous system of the squirrel monkey.

Estrogen is concentrated within cellular nuclei in discrete regions of the monkey brain 30 and 60 minutes following intravenous injection of [3H] estradiol. Chromatographic data is provided to suggest that most of the localized estrogen is in the form of estradiol with lesser amounts of estrone and estriol. Three "major" areas of estrogen accumulation include: (1) preopticostrial accumulation: n. preopticus medialis--n. interstitialis striae terminalis, (2) basal hypothalamic accumulation: n. infundibularis--n. ventromedialis--n. premammillaris ventralis, and (3) the amygdaloid accumulation. Several "minor" areas of estrogen accumulation include the tuberculum olfactorium, insulae Calleja, n. triangularis septi, a. hypothalamica anterior, n. anterior hypothalami, n. paraventricularis, n. supraopticus, n. periventricularis and the substantia grisea centralis. The neocortex, rhombencephalon and spinal cord are essentially unlabeled. The major areas of accumulation are similar in several other mammalian and avian species while these, and some minor areas of accumulation, have been shown in neuroanatomical studies to be interconnected by several pathways, especially the stria terminalis. Lesion, implant, stimulation, recording and morphometric studies, in several species, support the concept that this arrangement provides a neuroanatomical substrate which would allow the integration of the various facets of the neuroendocrine reproductive response.

A cytoarchitectonic atlas of the mouse hypothalamus.

A description of the organization, areas, and cell groups within the hypothalamus of the mouse is presented in detail. Photomicrographs of cell-stained serial sections through the hypothalamus in frontal, sagittal and horizontal planes are included. The hypothalamus has been divided basically into medial and lateral parts with most well-defined cell groups or nuclei lying within the medial subdivision and surrounded by diffuse collections of cells referred to as areas. The heterogenetiy of cell types within most hypothalamic nuclei and areas has been emphasized with the consequent implications for heterogeneity of neuronal connections and of functions. Recently introduced neuroanatomical techniques permitting increased attention to the cellular level of organization have demonstrated precise connections and functional localization of cells within the hypothalamus. While cytoarchitectonic distinctions imply functional distinctions, morphological and experimental evidence suggest the existence also of systems of cells which transcend conventional cytoarchitectonic boundaries, the cells within each system being interconnected functionally or neuronally.

Quantitative comparison of AIR, SPM, and the fully deformable model for atlas-based segmentation of functional and structural MR images.

Typical packages used for coregistration in functional image analyses include automated image registration (AIR) and statistical parametric mapping (SPM). However, both methods have limited-dimension deformation models. A fully deformable model, which combines the piecewise linear registration for coarse alignment with demons algorithm for voxel-level refinement, allows a higher degree of spatial deformation. This leads to a more accurate colocalization of the functional signal from different subjects and therefore can produce a more reliable group average signal. We quantitatively compared the performance of the three different registration approaches through a series of experiments and we found that the fully deformable model consistently produces a more accurate structural segmentation and a more reliable functional signal colocalization than does AIR or SPM.

Bony exostosis of the atlas with resultant cranial nerve palsy.

A case of tenth and twelfth nerve compression secondary to a bony exostosis of the first cervical vertebra is described. This uncommon phenomenon serves to outline the importance of imaging the course of a cranial nerve when no intracranial abnormality is demonstrable on CT or MRI. The radiologic features of spinal osteochondromas are reviewed.
