title: Ipsilateral projections to the terminal nuclei of the accessory optic system in the albino rat.
abstract: The projection of the retinal ganglion cells to the terminal nuclei of the accessory optic system has been re-examined in the albino rat. After intravitreal injection of [3H]leucine the contralateral and ipsilateral terminal nuclei were labeled. This complete ipsilateral projection in the rat has, of yet, not been documented.
