Cytoarchitectonics of some cortical areas of the feline neocortex (a quantitative study in semithin sections).
This paper presents quantitative analysis of the size of neurons in individual architectonic layers of the neocortex of the cat. In semithin sections the area, perimeter and maximal diameter of the perikarya and their nuclei were measured. Eight different cortical areas were evaluated, including the motor cortex (anterior and lateral sigmoid gyrus), the sensory cortex (coronal gyrus and anterior ectosylvian gyrus), the association cortex (lateral gyrus), the auditory cortex (medial and posterior ectosylvian gyrus) and the visual cortex (occipital gyrus). The obtained quantitative data are summarized in tables.
