HPO HP:0012679 Widened interpedicular distance "An increase in the distance between vertebral pedicles, which are the two short, thick processes, which project backward, one on either side, from the upper part of the vertebral body, at the junction of its posterior and lateral surfaces." [UToronto:htrang] HP:0008438
HPO HP:0012680 Abnormality of the pineal gland "An anomaly of the pineal gland,a small endocrine gland in the brain that produces melatonin." [HPO:probinson] HP:0000818
HPO HP:0012681 Abnormal pineal morphology "A structural abnormality of the pineal gland." [UToronto:htrang] The pineal gland typically measures 7 x 6 x 3mm in size and is located in a groove between the laterally placed thalamic bodies. HP:0012443, HP:0012680
HPO HP:0012682 Pineal gland calcification "Accumulation of calcium salts in the pineal gland." [HPO:probinson] This feature can be appreciated on skull radiography. HP:0012681
HPO HP:0012683 Pineal cyst "A glial uniloculated or multiloculated fluid-filled sac that either reside within or completely replace the pineal gland." [HPO:probinson, PMID:21801982] Pineal cysts are benign and often asymptomatic lesions. They are typically visualized by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. HP:0012681
HPO HP:0012684 Abnormal pineal volume "An abnormal increase or decrease in the quantity of three-dimensional space taken up by the pineal gland." [UToronto:htrang] This feature is typically assessed by magnetic resonance tomography of the brain. HP:0012681
HPO HP:0012685 Decreased pineal volume "An abnormal reduction in the quantity of three-dimensional space taken up by the pineal gland." [PMID:24456088, UToronto:htrang] HP:0012684
HPO HP:0012686 Increased pineal volume "An abnormal elevation in the quantity of three-dimensional space taken up by the pineal gland." [UToronto:htrang] HP:0012684
HPO HP:0012687 Agenesis of pineal gland "Failure to develop of the pineal gland, defined clinically as the absence of the pineal gland with no indication of the pineal gland even having been present." [UToronto:htrang] HP:0002977, HP:0012681
HPO HP:0012688 Abnormality of pineal physiology "A functional abnormality of the pineal gland." [UToronto:htrang] HP:0012638, HP:0012680
HPO HP:0012689 Abnormal pineal melatonin secretion "An anomaly in the amount or timing of melatonin secretion by the pineal gland. Note that melatonin is also synthesized by multiple tissues outside of the pineal gland." [PMID:22724080, UToronto:htrang] The rhythm of melatonin synthesized in and released from the pineal gland is characterized by a prominent nocturnal peak, which also contains temporal information that had originated in the suprachiasmatic nucleus. Strong reductions of circulating melatonin are also observed in numerous disorders and diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, various other neurological and stressful conditions, pain, cardiovascular diseases, cases of cancer, endocrine and metabolic disorders, in particular diabetes type 2.

HPO HP:0012691 Focal T2 hypointense thalamic lesion "A darker than expected T2 signal on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thalamus. This term refers to a localized hypointensity affecting a particular region of the thalamus." [HPO:probinson] HP:0012696
HPO HP:0012692 Focal T2 hyperintense thalamic lesion "A lighter than expected T2 signal on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thalamus. This term refers to a localized hyperintensity affecting a particular region of the thalamus."
