Borders of the fetal hippocampal formation in the axial plane. The rows show different axial levels of the hippocampal formation (HF): (A) hippocampal head (HH); (B) hippocampal body (HB); and (C) hippocampal tail (HT). The parallel black lines on the left 3D sagittal hippocampal renderings indicate where the corresponding axial slices are along the inferior– superior axis. The parallel blue imaginary lines indicate the approximate ranges of the HH, HB, and HT. The right two columns of T2 images show the axial view of the fetal hippocampal formation and its segmentations. Abbreviations show different brain structures: (AC) ambient cistern; (UL) uncal recess of the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle; (LV) lateral ventricle; (PG) parahippocampal gyrus; (HF) hippocampal fissure; (G) germinalmatrix; (F) fornix; (FM) fimbria; (SU) subiculum; (SLM) superficial medullary lamina; (Th) thalamus; (DG) dentate gyrus; (A) alveus; and (AG) amygdala.
