Description of part

No description provided. The abbreviation of Nucleus corporis geniculati lateralis was adopted by the collator and adapted from the Human brain nomenclature Bowden 2002 (the Latin of the lateral geniculate body). Collator note: this structure appears as directly under the thalamencephalon in the hierarchical list pages 80-94, even though the description of the thalamencephalon refers only to three distinct subdivisions: thalamus, epithalamus and metathalamus.
