An intricately patterned prefronto‐caudate projection in the rhesus monkey

The distribution of prefronto‐caudate fibers in the caudate nucleus was studied autoradiographically in monkeys of various ages in which tritiated amino acids had been injected into the middle one‐third of the length of the dorsal bank of the principal sulcus. The results indicate that, contrary to previous reports which had suggested a projection to only the head of the caudate nucleus, area 9 of Brodmann projects to the entire length of the nucleus.
