Representation of the visual field in the occipital striate cortex.
The representation of the field of vision in the human striate cortex is based on the Holmes map in which about 25% of the surface area of the striate cortex is allocated to the central 15 degrees of vision. Following the introduction of computed tomography of the brain, the accuracy of the Holmes map was apparently confirmed by clinical/radiological correlation, but a revision has been propose...
متن کاملBeyond retinotopic mapping: the spatial representation of objects in the human lateral occipital complex.
The spatial representation in the human ventral object-related areas (i.e., the lateral occipital complex [LOC]) is currently unknown. It seems plausible, however, that it would diverge from the strict retinotopic mapping (characteristic of V1) to a more invariant coordinate frame, thereby allowing for reliable object recognition in the face of eye, head, or body movement. To study this, we com...
متن کاملRepresentation of the perceived 3-D object shape in the human lateral occipital complex.
We used human functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to test whether the human lateral occipital complex (LOC), an area known to be involved in the analysis of visual shape, represents the perceived 3-D shape of objects or simply their 2-D contours. We employed an fMRI adaptation paradigm, in which repeated presentation of a stimulus results in decreased responses compared to responses to...
متن کاملoccipital war trauma and visual field defects
seven cases of visual field defects, caused by wartrauma were seen at farabi eye hospital. none were referred by a neurologist. four patients had 20/20 visions with normal fundi. one had 12/20, in both eyes, with normal fundi. two patients presented fundus changes. the visual field defects were seen in all these seven patients. four had homonymous hemianopia, one had bilateral field restriction...
متن کاملNo representation without awareness in the lateral occipital cortex.
Recent research has shown that four small dots presented in the vicinity of, but not adjacent to, a target stimulus can banish that stimulus from conscious awareness. It is thought that the mental representation of the masked stimulus is "erased" by the trailing quartet of dots. Using functional magnetic resonance adaptation, we show that there is no persisting neural representation of the succ...
