The paper shows considerable differences in the cytoarchitectonical organization of cortical fields 44, 45, and 4, 6 in the brain of different persons. The profile fields of pyramidal neurons in layers III and V substantially differ from each other for the cortical fields under investigation. The specific features of the total fractions of neurons and glia in the cortical fields in different brains are outlined. The density of neuronal location is an important criterion for individual variability. The magnitude of individual variability manifests itself the right and left hemispheres by different ways.
