Abstract
The visual brain cortex transected by synchrotron-generated microbeams showed an incision-like path of neuronal loss while adjacent non irradiated columns remained intact. These preliminary findings, to be further investigated also using other techniques, suggest that microbeam radiosurgery can affect the cortex at a cellular level providing a potential novel and attractive tool to study cortical function.
