MRI scan of a human brain, with several key anatomical structures labeled. Abbreviations: CC, cerebellum; DMT, dorsal medial thalamus; Hypo, hypothalamus; LAI/RAI, left/right anterior insula; LAP/RAP, left/right posterior insula; LCN/RCN, left/right caudate nucleus; LG, lingual gyrus; LHipp/RHipp, left/right hippocampus; LI/RI, left/right insula; PLT, posterior lateral thalamus; VLT, ventral lateral thalamus. Distances from the anterior commissure and orientation, based on the standard Montreal Neurological Institute space, are (A) 5 mm superior, (B) 5 mm left, (C) 27 mm right, and (D) 19 mm posterior. Distance increases from left-to-right for sagittal (side) views, posterior-to-anterior for coronal views, and inferior to superior for axial (transverse) views. The background image is a high-resolution scan from a single participant (normalized to Montreal Neurological Institute space).
