cortex of lymph node in dogs

Peripheral portion of the lymph node, underneath the capsule[WP]. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the cortex of lymph node is

Peripheral portion of the lymph node, underneath the capsule[WP]. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the cortex of lymph node is

It sits within the lymphatic & immune system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the cortex of lymph node connects to

The atlas records 7 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of lymph node.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the cortex of lymph node. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as lymph node cortex and cortex nodi lymphoidei. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the cortex of lymph node?

It sits within the lymphatic & immune system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What does the cortex of lymph node connect to?

Part of: lymph node.

Is the cortex of lymph node the same in other species?

This page describes the dog. The human record of the same structure sits beside it on /compare, over one shared model rather than two atlases built separately.
