TLDR
There are several reasons for thinking that this method may offer a number of advantages over other currently available techniques, and it should be possible to do this by locally injecting radioactively labeled precursors of proteins or other macromolecules into the brain or spinal cord.About:

Ferrier Lecture: Functional Architecture of Macaque Monkey Visual Cortex
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: In most respects the above description fits the newborn monkey just as well as the adult, suggesting that area 17 is largely genetically programmed.

The three-dimensional organization of the hippocampal formation: a review of anatomical data.
David G. Amaral,Menno P. Witter +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that it is heuristically most reasonable to consider the hippocampal formation as a three-dimensional cortical region with important information processing taking place in both the transverse and long axes.

An autoradiographic analysis of the differential ascending projections of the dorsal and median raphe nuclei in the rat
Efrain C. Azmitia,Menahem Segal +1 more
TL;DR: The differential projections from the dorsal raphe and median raphe nuclei of the midbrain were autoradiographically traced in the rat brain after 3H‐proline micro‐injections to identify six ascending fiber tracts.
Journal ArticleDOI
An autoradiographic study of the organization of the efferet connections of the hippocampal formation in the rat
Larry W. Swanson,W. M. Cowan +1 more
TL;DR: The efferent connections of the hippocampal formation of the rat have been re‐examined autoradiographically following the injection of small quantities of 3H‐amino acids into different parts of Ammon's horn and the adjoining structures to indicate quite clearly that each component of the hippocampusal formation has a distinctive pattern ofefferent connections.

Neurogenesis in the adult rat: electron microscopic analysis of light radioautographs
Michael S. Kaplan,James W. Hinds +1 more
TL;DR: Three-month-old rats were injected intraperitoneally with [3H]thymidine and labeled cells in the granular layers of dentate gyrus and olfactory bulb were confirmed as neurons by electron microscopy of reembedded 1-micrometer sections.

The structural organization of layer IV in the somatosensory region (SI) of mouse cerebral cortex. The description of a cortical field composed of discrete cytoarchitectonic units.
TL;DR: The author describes how his methods of investigation with celloidin embedded material prepared with the Golgi method and Nissl staining revealed for the first time the “barrel fields” of the mouse cerebral cortex that are activated by stimulation of the facial vibrissae (whiskers).

Improvements in the coating technique of radioautography
TL;DR: The 1958 coating technique of Messier and Leblond for radioautography was investigated in the hope of eliminating artefacts and discovering the optimum conditions for reliable quantitativeRadioautography, and it is concluded that NTB2 bulk emulsion is the most suitable.

Acetylcholine metabolism of a sympathetic ganglion
R. Birks,F. C. MacIntosh +1 more
TL;DR: The synthesis, storage, and release of acetylcholine were studied in perfused and intact superior cervical ganglia of cats and determined by bio-assay in ganglion extracts and in the venous ganglia.
