The thalamus, a way station for sensation, lies centrally in each hemisphere and the two together form the walls of the third ventricle, penetrating it with a central bridge of tissue (massa intermedia).

The caudate nucleus, part of the basal ganglia, forms one wall of each lateral ventricle. It ends in the amygdala at the tip of the inferior ventricular horn.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T
The lenticular nucleus of the basal ganglia consists of two parts, a superficial putamen and a deeper globus pallidus. The globus pallidus and adjacent portion of the thalamus perform motor integration functions. Radiating fibers to and from the cortex lie between the lenticular nucleus externally and the caudate nucleus and thalamus internally, forming the internal capsule.
