  1. Changes in annotations across version are coded using the following abbreviations: n, new; u, unchanged; mi, minor changes; ma, major changes; r, replaced. The abbreviations and terms in the left column are from version 3. * The region has another term in other versions. ACB v4, Accumbens nucleus; FS v1–2, Fundus of the striatum; GPe v1–2 and 4, Globus pallidus lateral segment (GPl); GPi v1–2 and 4, Globus pallidus medial segment (GPm); SI v4, Innominate substance. The regions are here categorised as belonging to the striatum (STR), pallidum (PAL), substantia nigra (SN), ventral tegmental area (VTA), or subthalamic nucleus (STN). Abbreviations: Abb, abbreviation; Hier, hierarchical parent region.
