An fMRI study of human visual cortex in response to spatiotemporal properties of visual stimuli
ABSTRACT Background: The brain response to temporal frequencies (TF) has been already reported, but with no study reported for different TF with respect to various spatial frequencies (SF). Materials and Methods: fMRI was performed by 1.5T GE-system in 14 volunteers during checkerboard, with TFs of 4, 6, 8 and 10Hz in low and high SFs of 0.5 and 8cpd. Results: Average percentage BOLD signa...
متن کاملVisual projections routed to the auditory pathway in ferrets: receptive fields of visual neurons in primary auditory cortex.
How does cortex that normally processes inputs from one sensory modality respond when provided with input from a different modality? We have addressed such a question with an experimental preparation in which retinal input is routed to the auditory pathway in ferrets. Following neonatal surgical manipulations, a specific population of retinal ganglion cells is induced to innervate the auditory ...
متن کاملVisual projections induced into the auditory pathway of ferrets: II. Corticocortical connections of primary auditory cortex.
Although the development of corticocortical projections has been well studied, less is known about the role of sensory inputs in the specification of these connections. As part of an ongoing series of studies in our laboratory, we have examined the role of thalamic input modality in the development of corticocortical connections. These studies involve making unilateral lesions and inducing reti...
متن کاملOriented axon projections in primary visual cortex of the monkey.
One important aspect of the functional architecture of primary visual cortex is the circuitry that accounts for the receptive field properties of neurons. The anatomy that underlies retinotopy and ocular dominance is well known, but no anatomical structure related to orientation selectivity has been found in primates. We examined whether the arrangement of local axon systems projecting within t...
متن کاملSegregation of feedforward and feedback projections in mouse visual cortex.
Hierarchical organization is a common feature of mammalian neocortex. Neurons that send their axons from lower to higher areas of the hierarchy are referred to as "feedforward" (FF) neurons, whereas those projecting in the opposite direction are called "feedback" (FB) neurons. Anatomical, functional, and theoretical studies suggest that these different classes of projections play fundamentally ...
