a Cerebellar cortical section (200× magnification, modified Bielschowsky silver method), showing PFs. A selected region was 200 µm in width and situated just above the PC layer. PFs within that region were analyzed. b A PFC was obtained by drawing an index line at the center of each image, and counting the number of PFs that crossed that line. c PFs were traced as described and PFID was obtained
