inner nuclear layer of retina in dogs

Cytoarchitectural layer of retina containing closely packed cell bodies, the majority of which are bipolar cells (adapted from Wikipedia). Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the inner nuclear layer of retina is

Cytoarchitectural layer of retina containing closely packed cell bodies, the majority of which are bipolar cells (adapted from Wikipedia). The atlas records it as a nerve at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the inner nuclear layer of retina is

It sits in the head, within the nervous and sensory systems. Not positioned individually, and containment is not asserted either. Drawn near structures of the same kind, which is a weak claim about location.

What the inner nuclear layer of retina connects to

The atlas records 5 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of retinal neural layer.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the inner nuclear layer of retina. 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 inner nuclear layer, intermediate cell layer, neural retina inner nuclear layer, retina inner nuclear layer, retinal inner nuclear layer and stratum nucleare internum, and 4 more. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Is the inner nuclear layer of retina 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.
