External Email - Use Caution        

Dear Eugenio and experts,


I have run the segmentation of the hippocampus subfields and nuclei of the 
amygdala using the latest algorithm implemented in the development version of 
Freesurfer. We have a priori hypotheses regarding the basolateral amygdala.


I understand that you have broken the amygdala output down into the distinct 
subregions, e.g., the basal, lateral and accessory basal amygdala nuclei.  
Based on this reference 
https://www.physiology.org/doi/pdf/10.1152/physrev.00002.2003, my understanding 
is that the "basolateral nucleus" is comprised of the basal and lateral nucleus 
of the amygdala and the "basolateral nuclei" (aka. basolateral complex) 
comprises basal, lateral and accessory basal nuclei.


So, I can create a variable called the "basolateral nucleus" (by adding 
together the basal + lateral) and the "basolateral complex" (by adding together 
basal + lateral + accessory basal). Is this assumption correct?

Kind regards,
Sally.
