High power photomicrographs of axons within the LGN.
Notes: (A) P, (B) K, and (C) M layers. There was no qualitative difference in axon caliber or bouton size that correlated with LGN layer type. Corticogeniculate axons, arrow in (C), were much finer than geniculate relay cell dendrites (arrowheads). Scale bar =10 μm.
Abbreviations: K, koniocellular; LGN, lateral geniculate nucleus; M, magnocellular; P, parvocellular.
