Fornix, Brain

Hjärnvalv

Svensk definition

En nervbunt med mycket myelin, i telencefalon, som sträcker sig från hippocampusbildningen till hypotalamus. Fornix anses av vissa tillhöra det limbiska systemet. Nervtrådsfransen börjar som ett platt band av axoner (nervcellsutskott) i subiculum hippocampi, vilket sedan sväller upp och bildar fornix (hjärnvalvet).

Engelsk definition

Heavily myelinated fiber bundle of the TELENCEPHALON projecting from the hippocampal formation to the HYPOTHALAMUS. Some authorities consider the fornix part of the LIMBIC SYSTEM. The fimbria starts as a flattened band of axons arising from the subiculum and HIPPOCAMPUS, which then thickens to form the fornix.
