Response Properties of Pulvinar Neurons Studied with Single-Unit Electrophysiological Recordings.
In this chapter, we discuss the types of visual receptive fields revealed by single-unit electrophysiological recordings in the pulvinar. Nearly all neurons with identifiable receptive fields responded to visual stimulation presented on the contralateral hemifield, within 25° of the fovea. The majority of the visual neurons responded to some form of moving stimulus, and some additionally exhibited direction or orientation selectivity. Most units could be driven by monocular stimulation and showed receptive fields of at least 100 square degrees in area. Finally, most of the units recorded exhibited continuous peripheral receptive fields, even though a few of them could be bilaterally activated.
期刊介绍:
"Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology" presents critical reviews on all topical fields of normal and experimental anatomy including cell biology. The multi-perspective presentation of morphological aspects of basic biological phenomen in the human constitutes the main focus of the series. The contributions re-evaluate the latest findings and show ways for further research.
