[Neuronal structure of piriform cortex of anterior amygdaloid body of the rat brain].
The cytoarchitecture and neuronal organization were studied in piriform cortex at rostral and caudal levels of anterior amygdaloid body using the methods of Nissl and Golgi. The division of the piriform cortex into several areas is proposed, including basal area (area basalis), lateral area (area lateralis), and transitional, or terminal area (area terminalis), bordering the insular cortex. It is recommended to subdivide the lateral area into two subareas, L1 and L2. All the areas defined differ in their neuroarchitecture, structure of the layers and neuronal composition.
