| 11. | Patients with BBGD have bilateral necrosis in the head of the caudate nucleus and in the putamen.
|
| 12. | The globus pallidus is involved with voluntary motor movement, while the putamen is involved with motor learning.
|
| 13. | Simultaneously, in the indirect pathway, the motor cortices send activating signals to the caudate and putamen.
|
| 14. | Some neurologists hypothesize that the putamen also plays a role in the selection of movement ( e . g.
|
| 15. | The globus pallidus and putamen are two nuclei of the basal ganglia which are both involved in motor skills.
|
| 16. | The putamen is hypodense on T2-weighted MRI and may show an increased deposition of iron in Parkinsonian form.
|
| 17. | Fluorescence microscopy image of a coronal mouse brain section, cut through the striatum ( caudate putamen, CP ).
|
| 18. | The direct pathway passes through the caudate, putamen, and globus pallidus, which are parts of the basal ganglia.
|
| 19. | But only half received injections of dopamine-producing cells into the putamen, the region of the brain that controls movement.
|
| 20. | It is divided by a white matter tract called the internal capsule into two parts : the putamen and the caudate nucleus.
