  1. Extrastriate Cortex and Higher Cortical Deficits Adler’s Physiology of the Eye 11th Ed. Chapter 31 - by Boyd & Matsubara http://www.mcgill.ca/mvr/resident/

  2. Multiple Visual Areas Beyond V1 Monkey Brain

  3. Extrastriate Cortex • Discrete cortical areas • Hierarchical Organization -lower tier, higher tier • Parallel Streams - what vs. where - intra-area (blobs vs interblobs) - retinotopy • Feedforward and Feedback connections

  4. Extrastriate Cortex Criteria For a Visual Area • Cyto-, myeloarchitecture • Connectivity New Way to Gain a Clear View of the Brain New York Times October 10, 2011 • Retinotopy -complete or partial map of visual space -represent a point in space only once? -smoothly varying? -orthogonal axes? • Specialized Function • Topography

  5. Monkey Visual Cortex

  6. Doctrine of the Receptive Field Retinotopy V2 V3 V1 Multiple “areas” V1, V2, V3

  8. V2

  9. Functional Division of Labor? (motion) (color)

  10. “What” versus “Where” Pathways Original concept came from lesion studies in monkeys (Mishkin & Ungerleider, 1982)

  11. “What” versus “Where” Pathways Cross talk remains, and feedback is prevalent

  12. Extrastriate Visual Areas thin- col - V4 inter- ori -V4 • V2 thick - ori dis - MT • V3d and V3A also magno-like • MT - MST magno input, V14B, thick, dir, dis, motion, depth • LIP - 7a Optic flow input, large RF, multimodal, project to frontal • V4 Central field input V1, V2, col ori, form primitives • IT input V2, V4, object features, face cells, project to multimodal Very large RF, object invariance, color constancy, training effects

  13. MT * Strongly associated with motion perception Lesion and microstimulation studies in monkeys (Newsome and Pare, 1988; Salzman, Britten, Newsome, 1990)

  14. Wiring Diagram of Visual Areas “Subway Map From Hell” Van Essen et al., 1991

  15. Human Visual Cortex MonkeyVisual Cortex Adlers, 2011

  16. Human Lesion-Behavioral Correlations

  17. Localization of Function in Humans Sources of information • Focal lesions • Histological Analysis • Hemispherectomy • Commissurotomy • Unilateral sodium amytal injection • Brain stimulation • Spontaneous and evoked electrical potentials • Functional brain imaging

  18. Retinotopic Areas • Mapping Visual V1 with Clinical Stimulation (Dobelle et al, 1979) • Mapping Visual Areas Via Callosal Projections (Clark & Miklossy, 1990) • Mapping Visual V1 via Lesion-Scotoma Correlations (Horton & Hoyt, 1991) “state-of the-art” update of Gordon Holmes’Maps (1918) Human V1, V2, V3, V3A, V6, VP, V4, V8

  19. Syndromes From Isolated Case Studies Akinetopsia Human MT Zihl et al., 1983

  20. Syndromes From Isolated Case Studies Achromotopsia color constancy color constancy Human V4/V8

  21. Visual Agnosia Aperceptive Agnosia - thought to be due to a disability in the construction of a stable representation of visual form, which impairs all high order recognition. Associative Agnosia - thought to reflect a deficit in accessing semantic (associative) knowledge about an object following the derivation of an intact perceptual representation of visual form. “Perception somehow striped of its meaning” (Teuber) Example: The man who mistook his wife for a hat (Oliver Sacks, 1985)

  22. Syndromes From Isolated Case Studies Prosopagnosia

  23. Syndromes From Isolated Case Studies Prosopagnosia Benton Facial Recognition Test

  24. Neurons Selective For Faces in Monkey IT

  25. Human Face Areas anterior • fMRI studies with humans show increased activity in the fusiform face area (FFA). Inverted faces are hard to recognize. We are all face “experts” inflated brain inferior view

  26. Spatial Neglect

  27. Artist’s rendition of spatial neglect German artist Anton Raderscheidt showed graduated recovery over eight-month period.

  28. Drawings of Patients with Spatial Neglect

  29. Example Lesions that Produce Neglect

  30. Modern Analysis of Lesion Overlap Right Hemisphere
