Presentation Transcript

  1. Damage to “where” pathway Abnormal motion processing & Visuspatial neglect

  2. Akinetopsia • Clinical features • Can’t see moving objects (as if under strobe lights); can see still objects • People appear suddenly • Neuropathology • BL lesion to area MT (V5; T-O-P junction) • UL lesions cause subtle defects

  3. Akinetopsia • Clinical features • Can’t see moving objects (as if under strobe lights); can see still objects • People appear suddenly • Neuropathology • BL lesion to area MT (V5; T-O-P junction) • UL lesions cause subtle defects

  4. Emotion Localization

  5. Time, sequence, attention and space

  6. Parietal lobe

  9. Neglect syndrome (right parietal association cortex)

  10. Spatial relationships distorted

  11. Spatial relationships distorted

  13. Parietal lobe

  14. Acalculia • Language • Agraphia • Apraxia

  15. Bilateral Parietal Damage (Balint's Syndrome) • Impaired control over the focus of visual attention due to inattentional amnesia • Complex defects in perception of visual object structure, motion and depth. • Neglect (hemifield)

  16. Bilateral Parietal Damage (Balint's Syndrome) • SIMULTANAGNOSIA: Inability to interpret the totality of a picture scene (can identify individual portions of the whole picture)

  17. Bilateral Parietal Damage (Balint's Syndrome) • Simultanagnosia: Inability to interpret the totality of a picture scene (can identify individual portions of the whole picture) • Optic ataxia: Defects of visually guided hand movement

  18. Bilateral Parietal Damage (Balint's Syndrome) • Simultanagnosia: Inability to interpret the totality of a picture scene (can identify individual portions of the whole picture) • Optic ataxia: Defects of visually guided hand movement • Ocular apraxia: Inability to voluntarily move eyes to objects of interest (difficulty volitionally redirecting gaze
