Geometric angles, estimated amplitude-distance constant, k, and distance, y′0 between contact 0 and the Vc/Vim border for 6 thalami in which the threshold amplitude increased monotonically with contact number. θ and Φ were calculated from the stereotactic ring and arc angles, respectively. Two thalami were excluded (gray) from calculation of parameter estimates due to the strong sensitivity of the parameter estimates when θ was less than 20°. In three thalami, the threshold amplitude did not increase monotonically with contact number, and the estimates of k and y′0 are listed as NA (not available) for these thalami.
