geniculate body

Most of these fibres terminate in the lateral geniculate body.

Almost separated from the thalamic mass are the Geniculate bodies (G).

The effects of visual deprivation on the morphology and physiology of cell's lateral geniculate body.

The massive, fan-like fiber system passing from the lateral geniculate body of the thalamus to the visual cortex.

The signals are passed on to the lateral geniculate body, in turn giving them to the occipital cortex (the outer matter of the rear brain).

The idea of three separate channels running from the retina to the visual cortex via the dorsal lateral geniculate body is now well established.

It is involved in the special sense of vision and sends its superior brachium to the lateral geniculate body of the diencephalon.

The visual cortex also receives information from subcortical regions, such as the lateral geniculate body, located in the thalamus.

Ablation of area 17 leads to almost total loss of cells in the dorsal lateral geniculate body, a process known as retrograde degeneration.

The lateral region and the geniculate bodies indeed receive strong lower "specific" afferences and can be seen as the "sensorimotor" part of the thalamus.

From the lateral geniculate body, fibers of the optic radiation pass to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe of the brain.

Medial geniculate nucleus, or medial geniculate body, a subnucleus of the thalamus in the brain.

The revolution, eternally vigilant, multitasked on his lateral geniculate body, rousting slumbering synapses to recognize suspicious patterns of behavior.

The medial geniculate body (MGB) is the output connection from inferior colliculus and the last subcortical way station.

In 1822, Friedrich Burdach distinguished between the lateral and medial geniculate bodies, as well as named the cingular gyrus.

This is made up of the two "geniculate bodies" (knee-form bodies) that are located ventrally at the surface of the thalamus, below the pulvinar.

Retinal sensors convey stimuli through the optic tracts to the lateral geniculate bodies, where optic radiations continue to the visual cortex.

Although these phasic waves are observed in many portions of the animal brain, they are most noticeable in the pons, lateral geniculate bodies, and the occipital cortex.

These include the pretectum, the ventral lateral geniculate body, the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, and the three terminal nuclei of the accessory optic system in the midbrain.

In short, optic atrophy is the end result of any disease that damages nerve cells anywhere between the retinal ganglion cells and the lateral geniculate body (anterior visual system).

Hubel, DH and Livingstone, MS. Color and contrast sensitivity in the lateral geniculate body and primary visual cortex of the macaque monkey.

The first (A) is a bottom-up component in which the input to the higher visual cortex (where conscious perception takes place) comes from the retina via the lateral geniculate body and V1.

A distinction is often drawn between the relatively direct pathway from the retina to the visual cortex, by way of the dorsal lateral geniculate body, and the projection to other sites in the brainstem.

This limb contains the main structures; the retina that contains the retinal ganglion axons in the optic nerve, chiasm and tract, the lateral geniculate body, and the visual cortex.

Of these the largest are the dorsal lateral geniculate body, in the thalamus, and the superior colliculus, in the midbrain, but there are a number of other sites which also receive direct retinal input.
