The extended amygdala is a macrostructure in the brain that is involved in
reward cognition and defined by connectivity and neurochemical staining.
It includes the
central medial amygdala, sublenticular
substantia innominata, and the
bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
The boundaries are indistinct in Nissl stained sections.
