Popis: Injections of the low diffusion retrograde tracer rhodamine latex microspheres were made in the pontine grey matter of the cat in order to study the cortical convergence to the pons. We found a different distribution of cells in the convex surface of the brain hemisphere making ventral or dorsolateral injections. In the first case, cells were grouped in the top of the gyri. In the second case, cells were more frequent in the bottom of the sulci. Our results show a possible retinotopic organization of this projection.
