Stage 22 Embryo (Human) Selected High power

Hypophysis (pituitary)

A7: Overview of embryo (stage 22) head region where high power sections is from in B2. Hypophysis (pituitary) in centre of image cut tranversely.

B2: Neurohypophysis (infundibular part with hypothalamic recess of 3rd ventricle). Cavity in centre of image is the residual lumen of Rathke's pouch, which will form pars intermedia. Surrounding the hypophysis is sphenoid cartilage.

Thyroid

C2: Overview of embryo (stage 22) neck region where high power sections is from in C3. Thyroid gland at top of image lying anterior and extending lateral to the trachea.

C3: Thyroid gland.

Thymus

C5: Overview of embryo (stage 22) chest region where high power sections is from in C6. Thymus gland at top of image anterior to section through aortic arch.

C6: Thymus gland.


Adrenal

E6: Overview of embryo (stage 22) at the level of the liver where adrenals are seen.

F3: Fetal and permanent adrenal cortex. The medulla of the adrenal gland is of neural crest origin and it is not yet encapsulated by the cortex.
