Structure of the Cerebellar Cortex
The cerebellar cortex can be regarded as a large sheet
with folds lying in the coronal or transverse plane. Each
fold or folium contains a core of white matter covered
superficially by gray matter.
A section made through the cerebellum parallel with the
median plane divides the folia at right angles, and the
cut surface has a branched appearance, called the
arbor vitae.
The gray matter of the cortex throughout its extent has
a uniform structure. It may be divided into three
layers:
(1) an external layer, the molecular layer;
(2) a middle layer, the Purkinje cell layer; and
(3) an internal layer, the granular layer.ฉันรักแปลภาษา
