Journal ArticleDOI

Repeated fMRI using iron oxide contrast agent in awake, behaving macaques at 3 Tesla.

TL;DR: The contrast agent MION produced a dramatic improvement in functional brain imaging results in the awake, behaving primate at this field strength, compared to BOLD imaging at 3 Tesla.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scene-Selective Cortical Regions in Human and Nonhuman Primates

TL;DR: A homologous neural architecture for scene- selective regions in visual cortex of humans and nonhuman primates, analogous to the face-selective regions demonstrated earlier in these two species are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional anatomy of macaque striate cortex. IV. Contrast and magno- parvo streams

TL;DR: The sum of all available evidence suggests that the magnocellular information projects strongly through striate layers 4Ca, 4B, and 6, with moderate input into the blobs in layers 2 + 3, and to blob-aligned portions of layer 4A, which is essentially saturated at stimulus contrasts of 50% and above.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional anatomy of macaque striate cortex. V. Spatial frequency

TL;DR: Variations in uptake between layers 4Ca and 4Cb, as a function of eccentricity, shift in parallel with the changes in the upper-layer topography, which is consistent with known, eccentricity-dependent variations of receptive-field size and spatial frequency tuning.
