Popis: The neuronal content of human thalamic nucleus reticularis was studied in serial sections cut in sagittal and frontal projections and impregnated with silver nitrate using Golgi method. The neuronal content of human thalamic nucleus reticularis was found to be more diverse than previously reported in animals and man. Besides two types of sparsely-branched long-dendritic spineless R1 and R2 neurons, this nucleus contained spiny cells. Medium and small-sized sparsely-branched short-dendritic neurons and densely-branched spiny cells were demonstrated. The principle of organization of human thalamic nucleus reticularis is described.
