TA98 RAT note
|
The Latin precursor nuclei basales et structurae pertinentes, and its English equivalent, contained a conjunction, which is not compatible with the rules of Regular Anatomical Terminology. A new term substantia alba telencephali was created as a subsection header because the truncation of nuclei basales et structurae pertinentes to nuclei basales orphaned more than 50 entries.

TA98 footnote
|
Nuclei basales et structurae pertinentes Some textbooks state, without qualification, that the substantia nigra and nucleus subthalamicus are parts of the basal nuclei of the telencephalon. Since this affiliation is based on functional, not structural or developmental, grounds it is inappropriate to include these structures under this heading. The substantia nigra and the nucleus subthalamicus are parts of the mesencephalon and diencephalon, respectively.
