This page covers biological details of component Dorsal Putamen Medial. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Forebrain Telencephalon -> Basal Ganglia (BGA.FT.BG) -> Striatum (BGA.FT.ST) -> Dorsal Striatum (BGA.FT.DST) -> Dorsal Putamen (BGA.FT.DPU) -> Dorsal Putamen Caudal (FEC.FT.PU.DCD) -> Dorsal Putamen Medial (FEC.FT.PU.MED) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Forebrain - Execution Control Area
• Role: relay
• Function: Extensor motor initiation
• Notes to function: dorsomedial, SMC and PMC - overlap, BA 6,46
