Functional imaging of human auditory cortex.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes recent advances in functional magnetic resonance imaging that reveal similarities in the organization of human auditory cortex (HAC) and auditory cortex of nonhuman primates. RECENT FINDINGS Functional magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown that HAC is a compact region that covers less than 8% of the total cortical surface. HAC is subdivided int...

متن کاملFunctional asymmetry in human primary auditory cortex: identified from longitudinal fMRI study.
The leftward hemispheric dominance in language processing may be associated with fundamental functional asymmetry in the primary auditory cortex (PAC). Based on repeated functional MRI (fMRI) measurements, we investigated the presence of functional asymmetry in the human PAC using binaural presentation of linguistic sounds (two-syllable nouns) and simple tonal stimulation. Eight right-handed vo...
متن کاملFunctional Changes in the Human Auditory Cortex in Ageing
Hearing loss, presbycusis, is one of the most common sensory declines in the ageing population. Presbycusis is characterised by a deterioration in the processing of temporal sound features as well as a decline in speech perception, thus indicating a possible central component. With the aim to explore the central component of presbycusis, we studied the function of the auditory cortex by functio...
متن کاملMirror-Symmetric Tonotopic Maps in Human Primary Auditory Cortex
Understanding the functional organization of the human primary auditory cortex (PAC) is an essential step in elucidating the neural mechanisms underlying the perception of sound, including speech and music. Based on invasive research in animals, it is believed that neurons in human PAC that respond selectively with respect to the spectral content of a sound form one or more maps in which neighb...
