title: Reconstruction of neurons of dorsal horn proper using Golgi-stained serial sections.
abstract: Three neurons located in the dorsal horn (Lamina III) have been reconstructed using Golgi-stained serial sections. These cells including dendritic and axonal branchings appear to remain within the dorsal horn and to belong to small-sized local interneurons of the dorsal horn proper. The measurements have been made with various criteria: the medio-lateral, dorso-ventral and rostro-caudal extents of the dendritic tree as well as the axonal branchings, total dendritic and axonal length, number of axonal endings and distance from the starting point of the axon at the dendrite to the point where the dendrite joins the soma (S-A distance).
