Abstract
The three-dimensional structure of Golgi-impregnated neurons was studied using modern data-collecting techniques. Branch length and branch angle distributions were examined and found to have a wide range of observed values. These types of distributions imply a stochastic design for the bifurcating structure. No apparent pattern was found in the branching configuration. Branch lengths were studied using both centrifugal and centripetal ordering. Results of this analysis indicate that branching probability is not uniform over the entire dendritic tree and may be dependent on the dendritic surface area.
