external pyramidal layer The term
external pyramidal layer is a cytoarchitectural term denoting the most superficial layer of
cerebral cortex in which pyramidal cells predominate. In
neocortex it is layer III (
Carpenter-1983 ). In areas of
agranular cortex with minimal evidence of an
external granular layer (II), the
external pyramidal layer is sometimes labeled layer II/III.
Also known as: external pyramidal layer, Lamina pyramidalis externa, Layer III, layer of medium-sized and large pyramidal cells, Lamina III, Lamina pyramidalis, isocortex, deep supragranular pyramidal layer
