Sonography of the internal capsule and basal ganglia in infants: 1. Coronal sections

TP Naidich, DA Gusnard and DK Yousefzadeh

Coronal sonograms in infants obtained with 3.5 and 5.0 MHz sector and linear-array transducers now depict the anterior limb, genu, posterior limb, and sublenticular parts of internal capsule; the caudate nucleus; the putamen; the lateral and medial nuclei of globus pallidus; the lateral and medial medullary laminae of the lenticular nucleus; the nucleus accumbens septi; and some of the thalamic nuclei. Correlation of sonograms obtained in vivo with gross and myelin-stained sections of human brain illustrates the configurations of these structures and the interrelations among them. Physicians familiar with this anatomy may now use sonography to localize focal lesions more accurately than has been possible previously.
