Anterior border

Landmark setting where the uncal recess of the temporal horn or the alveus is visible in the sagittally reformatted image

Posterior border

Landmark setting between the gray matter of the hippocampal tail and the surrounding white matter in the sagittally reformatted image

Medial border

Border between the hippocampal body and the transverse fissure; border between the hippocampal head and the crural cistern

Lateral border

Medial wall of the temporal horn

Inferior border

Border between the gray matter of the subiculum and the white matter in the parahippocampal gyrus
