"Gross anatomy "
"The germinal matrix is usually seen from 8-28 weeks of gestation. It is located lateral to the lateral ventricles within the brain matter. It consists of a cluster of fragile cells that gives origin to both neural and glial cells, hence, it forms the grey matter 1. Germinal matrix cannot be seen in normal term babies; it can only be seen in premature neonates, mainly before 37 weeks."
