The fields of Forel is a complex region in the posterior subthalamus, consisting of a concentrated collection of bundles of fibers.[1] The tracts formed include the thalamic fasciculus that includes the ansa lenticularis and lenticular fasciculus, cerebellothalamic tracts, and pallidothalamic tracts. Other included fibers connect to other brain regions. These tracts are described in regions known as H fields.

  • Nucleus campi medialis: the nucleus of prerubral field (field H)

  • Nucleus campi ventralis: Neurons scattered along the lenticular fasciculi in field H2 of Forel
