# IMAGING ANATOMY
|
|
|
|
- ## Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Visual cortex consumes virtually all of the occipital lobe, from primary sensory areas along the calcarine sulcus and occipital pole through the posterior parietal and temporal lobes
|
|
- 2 primary sensory processing streams
|
|
- Dorsal pathway ("where" pathway) extends from V1/V2 to V3 and into medial posterior parietal lobe
|
|
- Processes localization of stimuli in space, visual attention, spatial awareness, coordination of reaching and grasping
|
|
- Ventral pathway ("what" pathway) extends from V1/V2 to V4, V5/MT, and anterior inferior temporal lobe (AIT)
|
|
- Processes complex feature detection in visual stimuli, motion perception
|
|
- Multiple bilateral visual processing areas, each with a complete retinotopic map of visual space (V1, V2, V3, V4, V5/MT, V6, IPS regions)
|
|
- ## Primary (Striate) Visual Cortex (V1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 1st visual area receiving sensory input in the cortex
|
|
- Located along margins of the calcarine sulcus
|
|
- Foveal vision near occipital pole, with more peripheral vision extending anteriorly
|
|
- ## Extrastriate Visual Cortex (V2, V3, V4, V5/MT)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- V2 (Brodmann area 18): Immediately borders V1, with inverted retinotopic maps
|
|
- V3 (Brodmann area 19): Superior and anterior area V2, part of dorsal stream
|
|
- Processes progressively more abstract feature extraction
|
|
- V3A and V3B retinotopic maps
|
|
- V4 (Brodmann area 19 ): Anterior to V2 in lateral occipital cortex, part of ventral stream
|
|
- Lateral occipital: LO-1, LO-2 retinotopic maps along lateral occipital cortex anterior to V3
|
|
- Ventral occipital, human V4: VO-1, VO-2, hV4 retinotopic maps along inferomedial occipital cortex anterior to V3
|
|
- V5 (Brodmann area 19): Middle temporal gyrus at temporooccipital junction; processes motion, color, and attention perception; part of ventral stream
|
|
- V6 (Brodmann area 19): Along parietooccipital sulcus (medial motion area, analogue to primate mediodorsal area), part of dorsal stream
|
|
- ## Lateral Geniculate Nuclei of Thalamus
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Visualized on axial slice through superior colliculus at posterior lateral margin of the thalamus
|
|
- Endpoint of optic tracts
|
|
- Postsynaptic fibers extend anteromedial along Meyer loop, then posteriorly along optic radiations through visual cortex
|
|
- Additional fibers likely extend through lingual gyrus of occipital lobe to reach primary visual cortex layer 4
|
|
- ## Intraparietal Sulcus (IPS0/V7, IPS1, IPS2, IPS3, IPS4)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Posterior parietal regions processing stimulus attention
|
|
- Visual attentional regions along medial aspect of intraparietal sulcus
|
|
- Multiple areas with complete retinotopic map of visual space (IPS0, IPS1, IPS2, IPS3, IPS4)
|
|
|
|
# ANATOMY IMAGING ISSUES
|
|
|
|
- ## Imaging Recommendations
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Expanding ring, rotating hemifield tasks for visual field mapping
|
|
- ## Imaging Pitfalls
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Should check visual acuity prior to fMRI visual field mapping
|
|
|
|
# CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS
|
|
|
|
- ## Clinical Importance
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Vascular loops (P1 segment) can compress optic tracts and result in otherwise unexplained quadrantanopsia
|
|
- Presurgical visual field mapping usually focused on preserving V1/V2 retinotopic maps and foveal vision, optic radiations
|
|
- DTI best for imaging course of optic radiations for presurgical mapping

*The visual network cluster is shown from a 6-network parcellation of the brain based on whole-brain functional connectivity in 1,353 subjects. Regions within this cluster include striate and extrastriate visual cortex, medial parietal visual attentional regions, and lateral geniculate nuclei of the thalamus.*
