Totally agree. How do we change that? Bakerstmd 23:31, 5 May 2007 (UTC) parvocellular is a pathway in visual system which carries chromatic visual information. never have heard about parvocellular 'parts' though!!!! reply

I suspect the problem is connected with Wikipedia's insistence on being distinct from a dictionary. "Parvocellular" ("parvicellular" in my medical dictionary) cries out for an explanation, but until an appropriate treatment is proposed and publicized, what can we do?

I notice that the words "retinal ganglion" constitute a link to the article, "Ganglion cell," and that there is no article named "Retinal ganglion," suggesting that there is no such thing. Is that true? Unfree ( talk) 18:55, 10 June 2008 (UTC) reply
