这是一系列论文中的第二篇,在这些论文中,我们描述了我们基于清醒和一氧化二氮麻醉猫的单个和多个单位活动的电生理映射来定义视觉皮层功能单位的持续努力。在第一篇论文(杜莎,帕尔默和罗森奎斯特,'78)中,17区的范围和视网膜组织进行了描述。在本文中,我们描述了一些更复杂的组织的视觉皮层躺在银行的中间和后上裂沟。这个区域的皮质由六个视网膜组织单位。这些区域排列成三个大致镜像对称的对,在每种情况下被中间或后上裂沟的底部分开。一些丘脑-皮质放射自显影材料支持皮质的这种分组。
This is the second in a series of papers in which we describe our continuing efforts to define functional units of visual cortex based upon electrophysiological mapping of single and multiple unit activity in both awake and the nitrous oxide anesthetized cats. In the first paper (Tusa, Palmer and Rosenquist, '78), the extent and retinotopic organization of area 17 were described. In this paper, we describe the somewhat more complex organization of the visual cortex lying on the banks of the middle and posterior suprasylvian sulci. This region of cortex consists of six retinotopically organized units. These areas are arranged as three roughly mirror symmetrical pairs separated in each case by the fundus of the middle or posterior suprasylvian sulci. Some thalamo‐cortical autoradiographic material is presented which supports this parcellation of the cortex.
