CA2 field ( CA2 )
The term CA2 field refers to one of three parts of the histologically defined CA fields in the functionally defined hippocampal complex (HPC). It is found in the human ( Insausti-2012 ), macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ), rat ( Swanson-2004 ) and mouse ( Hof-2000 ). The other CA fields are the CA1 field and CA3 field. While the gross topology of the HPC is strikingly different in primates and rodents, the CA2 field is consistently located between the CA3 field and the CA1 field. Updated 28 May 2024.
