The term prelimbic area refers to a cytoarchitectonic area on the medial aspect of the cerebral hemisphere in the mouse ( Paxinos-2001 ) and the rat ( Swanson-1998 ). It is located rostral to the ventral part of the anterior cingulate area between the dorsal part of the anterior cingulate area and the more ventral infralimbic area.
