Mapping of sound direction in the trout lower midbrain.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the trout lower midbrain 35% of the auditory neurons are directionally selective (DS). Most of these neurons have a higher directional selectivity than the sensory hair cells. DS units and non-DS units occur in vertical clusters, with the former more dorsally. The direction of preference is topographically mapped. Apparently, auditory space mapping is a common feature in the midbrain of vertebrates.

Acoustical stimulation causes displacement of the sensory hair cells relative to the otoliths of the fish inner ear. The swimbladder, transforming the acoustical pressure component into displacement, also contributes to the displacement of the hair cells. Together, this (generally) yields elliptical displacement orbits. Alternative mechanisms of fish directional hearing are proposed by the phas...

Purpose: Hemipelvectomy amputation is a surgical procedure in which the lower limb and part of the pelvis are removed. Although few studies are available on the performance of individuals with hip disarticulation while walking, there is no study on gait analysis of hemipelvectomy subjects. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the gait and stability of an individual with hemipelvectomy amput...

Introdouction: The mapping of ghost images of the maxilla and the nasal cavity, which are complex structures, is very important. The position of objects that create a ghost image can differ when using various devices. The purpose of this investigation was to study the mapping of ghost images of the maxilla and the nasal cavity using a Cranex D digital panoramic machine. Materials and methods: ...
متن کاملTemperature Mapping Using Ultrasound Digital Images
Introduction: The success of hyperthermia depends on the accuracy of the temperature monitoring in the tumor and the surrounding normal tissue. In this study, the temperature changes were determined by computing the speckle displacement in the ultrasound digital images. Speckle tracking algorithm was used to compute the displacement. Materials and Methods: The experiment was perf...
متن کاملThe Computation of Sound Source Elevation in the Barn Owl
The midbrain of the barn owl contains a map-like representation of sound source direction which is used to precisely orient the head toward targets of interest. Elevation is computed from the interaural difference in sound level. We present models and computer simulations of two stages of level difference processing which qualitatively agree with known anatomy and physiology, and make several s...
