    Abstract:
    The anterior chor oideal artery cannot be considered as an arterial source for thalamic vascularization. Its territory is primarily pallidocapsular and reaches the thalamus only irregularly and superfically. 2. The posteromedian choroideal and thalamic system, in its infrathalamic portion, gives off lateral mesencephalosubthalamic, inferocentral (for the tips of the arcuate nucleus and the inferolateral part of the centre median nucleus), brachiopulvinarian and posterocentral arteries. In its suprathalamic portion it gives off medial pulvinarian and superomedian thalamic arteries. These arteries irriguate the major part of nucleus medialis and the nucleus anterior. 3. The posterolateral choroideal and thalamic system gives off lateral genicular arteries (for the lateral geniculate body), inferolateral pulvinarian and superolateral thalamic arteries. These arteries irriguate the dorsal part of the interal region of the thalamus.
