这篇专题文章的重点是神经解剖学确定的灵长类动物皮质脊髓束内轴突直径分布与电生理学确定的同一束内轴突传导速度分布之间的差异。我们指出了解决这种差异的重要性，一个完整的理解皮质脊髓功能，并讨论了解剖学和生理学之间的不匹配的各种解释。
This feature article focuses on the discrepancy between the distribution of axon diameters within the primate corticospinal tract, determined neuroanatomically, and the distribution of axonal conduction velocities within the same tract, determined electrophysiologically. We point out the importance of resolving this discrepancy for a complete understanding of corticospinal functions, and discuss the various explanations for the mismatch between anatomy and physiology.
