The lentiform nucleus (or lentiform complex, lenticular nucleus, or lenticular complex) are the putamen (laterally) and the globus pallidus (medially), collectively. Due to their proximity, these two structures were formerly considered one, however, the two are separated by a thin layer of white matter—the external medullary lamina—and are functionally and connectionally distinct.
The putamen is located in the rostral division as part of the striatum. The basal ganglia receive input from the cerebral cortex, via the striatum. This is a transverse section of the striatum from a structural MR image. The striatum includes the caudate nucleus (top) and putamen (right) and the globus pallidus (left).
These fibers run between the most lateral (toward the side of the head) segment of the lentiform nucleus (more specifically the putamen) and the claustrum. The white matter of the external capsule contains fibers known as corticocortical association fibers. These fibers are responsible for connecting the cerebral cortex to another cortical area ...
posterior limb of the internal capsule, basilar part of pons, and corona radiata, red nucleus, lentiform nucleus, superior cerebellar artery infarcts, anterior cerebral artery infarcts It displays a combination of cerebellar and motor symptoms, including weakness and clumsiness, on the ipsilateral side of the body.

The anterior limb of the internal capsule (or crus anterius) is situated in front of the genu, between the head of the caudate nucleus and the lentiform nucleus. [4] It contains: Thalamocortical fibers passing from the lateral thalamic nuclei to the frontal lobe [4] Corticothalamic fibres passing from the frontal lobe to the lateral thalamic ...
The striatum includes the caudate nucleus (top), and the lentiform nucleus (the putamen (right) and the globus pallidus (lower left)) The striatum is the largest structure of the basal ganglia. The striatum is divided into two subdivisions, a ventral striatum and a dorsal striatum, based upon function and connections.
The globus pallidus (GP), also known as paleostriatum or dorsal pallidum, [1] is a major component of the subcortical basal ganglia in the brain.It consists of two adjacent segments, one external (or lateral), known in rodents simply as the globus pallidus, and one internal (or medial).
The ansa lenticularis (ansa lentiformis in older texts) is a part of the brain, making up the superior layer of the substantia innominata.Its fibers, derived from the medullary lamina of the lentiform nucleus, pass medially to end in the thalamus and subthalamic region, while others are said to end in the tegmentum and red nucleus.
