Intermediate zone of cortex
- Intermediate zone of cortex
-
In human embryology, the intermediate zone of the cortex is a layer in the neural tube between the marginal zone and the pia mater.
It contains bipolar cells as well as multipolar cells. The latter have a special type of neuronal migration - multipolar migration. [1]
