Abstract

The geniculate bodies are nuclear masses belonging to the dorsal thalamus that have detached from it during ontogeny and are therefore designated as the metathalamus. They comprise two major structures: the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) related to the visual system, and the medial geniculate nucleus, a part of the auditory system. The lateral geniculate nucleus has two components: the pars dorsalis (LGNd) and the pars ventralis (LGNv).
