One dimension of understanding the functions of the prefrontal cortex is knowledge of
cortical connectivity. We have surveyed three aspects of prefrontal cortical connections: local�…

Patterns of connections of the prefrontal cortex in the rhesus monkey associated with cortical
architecture. Patterns of connections of the prefrontal cortex in the rhesus monkey associated�…

The advent of new technology has led to a proliferation of studies examining the functional
roles of discrete prefrontal cortical areas. This has created a need for more precise�…

An investigation of the architectonic organization and intrinsic connections of the prefrontal
cortex was conducted in rhesus monkeys. Cytoarchitectonic analysis indicates that in the�…

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) histochemistry and double labeling with the fluorescent dyes
nuclear yellow (NY) and fast blue (FB) were used to examine and compare the laminar and�…

The laminar pattern of axonal termination from prefrontal (caudal orbitofrontal, rostral
orbitofrontal and lateral areas) to anterior temporal areas (entorhinal cortex, perirhinal cortex�…

This chapter reviews the association pathways linking post-Rolandic cortical areas with
particular prefrontal cortical regions, including comments on their possible functional�…

Cortical areas are linked through pathways which originate and terminate in specific layers.
The factors underlying which layers are involved in specific connections are not well�…

Publisher Summary This chapter examines the architecture and connections of the frontal
lobe. The frontal lobe has connections with several different cortical and subcortical regions�…

The different prefrontal cortical regions exert executive control over processing occurring in
posterior cortical regions. We examined with the autoradiographic method, in the macaque�…
