Visualization of the Medial and Lateral Geniculate Nucleus on Phase Difference Enhanced Imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The precise identification and measurement of the medial geniculate nucleus and lateral geniculate nucleus on MR imaging remain technically challenging because the thalamic nuclei are small structures. We compared the visualization of the medial geniculate nucleus and lateral geniculate nucleus on phase difference enhanced imaging with 3D high-resolution phase imaging, 2D...
متن کاملThe lateral geniculate nucleus
The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) is a huge embarrassment to visual neuroscientists. Virtually all the visual information that leaves the retina to be analysed in the visual cortex is relayed through synapses in this nucleus. It is a dogma of neurophysiology that the cost imposed by putting a synapse in any pathway must be repaid by some benefit in terms of processing. Unfortunately it is no...
متن کاملFunctional imaging of the human lateral geniculate nucleus and pulvinar.
In the human brain, little is known about the functional anatomy and response properties of subcortical nuclei containing visual maps such as the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and the pulvinar. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at 3 tesla (T), collective responses of neural populations in the LGN were measured as a function of stimulus contrast and flicker reversal rate and ...
متن کاملStudies of the cat's medial interlaminar nucleus: a subdivision of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus.
The medial interlaminar nucleus (MINI of the cat lies medial to the laminated region of the dorsal lateral geniculate (1amLGN). This latter region includes the A and C laminae. As does lamLGN, MIN receives direct retinal input and projects to various visual cortical areas. We examined the MIN of 15 normal adult cats with electrophysiological and anatomical techniques. Autoradiographs processed ...
متن کاملThe multifunctional lateral geniculate nucleus.
Providing the critical link between the retina and visual cortex, the well-studied lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) has stood out as a structure in search of a function exceeding the mundane 'relay'. For many mammals, it is structurally impressive: Exquisite lamination, sophisticated microcircuits, and blending of multiple inputs suggest some fundamental transform. This impression is bolstered ...
