Definition
English
:
The dorsal posterior subdivision of the
diencephalon
. The
epithalamus
is generally considered to include the habenular nuclei (
HABENULA
) and associated fiber bundles, the PINEAL BODY, and the epithelial roof of the
third ventricle
. The anterior and posterior paraventricular nuclei of the
thalamus
are included with the
THALAMIC NUCLEI
although they develop from the same pronuclear mass as the epithalamic nuclei and are sometimes considered part of the
epithalamus.
