The area of the hilus was measured using the granule cell layer and CA3 pyramidal cell layer as borders, and the number of cells per mm2 was then calculated. The number of cells in the crest, central hilus and dorsal blade of the hilus was determined by randomly placing a 200 μm2 rectangle over these regions, using the granule cell layer as a guide.
