Corpus callosum (CC) is essential in providing the integration of information related to perception and action within a subcortico-cortical network, thus supporting the generation of a unified experience about and reaction to changes in the environment. Its role in schizophrenia is yet to be fully elucidated, but there is accumulating evidence that there could be differences between patients an...

Four split-brained subjects, two subjects with agenesis of the corpus callosum, and 14 normal subjects performed two tasks requiring responses to red or green disks, briefly presented either singly in the left visual field, singly in the right visual field, or simultaneously in both visual fields. In Experiment 1, simple reaction times to these stimuli, regardless of colour, were recorded (the ...

In order to evaluate the callosal involvement in sound localization, the present study examined the response accuracy of acallosal and early callosotomized subjects to monaural and binaural auditory targets presented in three-dimensional space. In these subjects, bilateral localization cues, such as interaural time and level differences, are integrated at the cortical and subcortical levels wit...

Ketamine did not provide adequate anaesthesia for pneumoencephalography in a 10-week-old child with agenesis of the corpus collosum. Associated neurological defects are the most likely reason for this failure.
