Abbreviation

Description

PrS

Presubiculum

PaS

Parasubiculum

S

Subiculum

CA1-3

Cornu Ammonis 1-3

DG

Dentate gyrus

SRLM

Stratum radiatum lacunosum moleculare.

PP

Perforant pathway. Refers to the white matter of the subiculum.

ERC

Entorhinal cortex. This region contains several subdivisions detailed in Fig. 6

BA35

Brodmann Area 35 or perirhinal cortex. This region contains oblique and dorsal subdivisions.

BA36

Brodmann Area 36 or perirhinal cortex. This region contains rostral and caudal subdivisions.

RSC

Retrosplenial cortex

Area TE

Also known as the inferotemporal cortex, this subregion is laterally adjacent to the parahippocampal cortex. Although subdivisions of area TE have been identified, here we group them all under a single label.

Area TF

Subdivision of the parahippocampal cortex based on cytoarchitectural features. This region contains medial and lateral subdivisions.

Area TH

Subdivision of the parahippocampal cortex based on cytoarchitectural features.
