The striatum regions in the WHS rat brain atlas v4. (a) On the left side: a 3D rendering of the striatum regions in the WHS rat brain atlas v4: the caudate-putamen; nucleus accumbens, core; nucleus accumbens, shell; and ventral striatal region, unspecified. In the middle: lateral and horizontal views of 3D renderings with indicators of the horizontal, sagittal and coronal sections shown on the right side. The sagittal, coronal and horizontal sMRI section insets indicate the location and orientation of the MRI slices shown in (b–d,e–g,h–j), respectively. (b,e,h) Structural T2*-weighted MRI. (c,f,i) Whole-brain parcellation images with the striatum regions in colour and other regions in grey. (d,g,j) Diffusion tensor imaging, with DTI orientation colour code inset in (d) Abbreviations: aca, anterior commisure, anterior limb; acp, anterior commisure, posterior limb; Am-u, amygdaloid area, unspecified; BFR-u, basal forebrain, unspecified; cc, corpus callosum; CLA, claustrum; DV, dorsoventral; ec, external capsule; Endo, endopiriform nucleus; fi, fimbria of the hippocampus; GPe-l, globus pallidus external, lateral part; ic, internal capsule; ML, mediolateral; OB-u, olfactory bulb, unspecified; RC, rostrocaudal; Sep, septal region; Tu, olfactory tubercle; V, ventricle; VP, ventral pallidum.
