[Dynamics of the morpho-quantitative changes in the central and intermediate regions of the visual analyzer during...

Morpho-quantitative estimation of changes in IV and V layers of visual cortex and outer geniculate bodies of the brain of guinea pigs subjected to whole-body X-irradiation with a median lethal doses shows that neurons from the visual analyzer sections under study are differently damaged. The morphogenesis of changes is connected with the original variations in the quantitative structure of a neuron-glial complex and a selective alterative and productive reaction of the perivascular glia.
