modified granular cortex
The term modified granular cortex is a cytoarchitecturally defined term denoting the type of heterotypic cortex that is distinguished by an atypical organizatio of granule cell layers. An example is the primary visual area, primary visual cortex where both the internal granular layer (IV) and the external pyramidal layer (III) divide into two or three sublayers ( Brodmann-1909; Crosby-1962 )..
