title: A morphometric right-left comparison of the cat olfactory bulb.
abstract: The brain weight, sizes (length, width and height) and thickness of cell strata of the olfactory bulb (OB) were measured in the cat weighing 2.3 to 4.8 kg. There was a significant correlation between the brain weight and the body weight. The OB size did not correlate significantly with the body weight, but only the width of the OB with the brain weight. Comparison of the right and left OBs showed that there was no significant difference between them in regard to the size and thickness of cell strata in the cat used in the present experiment.
