The Efferent System of Cranial Nerve Nuclei: A Comparative Neuromorphological Study

von George Szekely, Clara Matesz

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A new approach using comparative neuromorphology is taken in
this study dealing with the organization of the efferent
nuclei of cranial nerves. The authors use the cobalt
labelling technique to identify neuron types and follow
their presence, or absence, in different animal species.
They suggest a new classification which is free from a
number of controversies inherent in the classical
classification. The results suggest that evolutionary
changes in the center and in the innervated periphary
parallel each other with increasingly complex function.
