Morphological Diversity of the Rod Spherule: A Study of Serially Reconstructed Electron Micrographs.

Rod spherules are the site of the first synaptic contact in the retina's rod pathway, linking rods to horizontal and bipolar cells. Rod spherules have been described and characterized through electron micrograph (EM) and other studies, but their morphological diversity related to retinal circui...
