text: Most of the optic nerve fibers end in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN).
text: Each optic tract terminates in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) in the thalamus.
text: The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) is a sensory relay nucleus in the thalamus of the brain.
text: A number of fMRI experiments that have exploited binocular rivalry and related illusions to identify the hemodynamic activity underlying visual consciousness in humans demonstrate quite conclusively that activity in the upper stages of the ventral pathway (e.g., the fusiform face area and the parahippocampal place area) as well as in early regions, including V1 and the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), follow the percept and not the retinal stimulus.
text: Some of these supply medial temporal structures, but the thalamic arteries are destined for the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), the inferolateral region of the pulvinar, the lateral dorsal nucleus, and the lateral posterior nucleus.
text: The specific sensory nuclei include the medial geniculate nucleus (MGN), lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), and ventroposterior nuclear group (lateral, medial, and inferior [VPL, VPM, and VPI]).
text: The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and the medial geniculate nucleus (MGN) contains cells that relay information from the eye and ear, respectively, to the cortex.
text: To examine the role of the visual thalamus in perception, we recorded neural activity in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and pulvinar of 2 macaque monkeys during a visual illusion that induced the intermittent perceptual suppression of a bright luminance patch.
text: The present study explores perceptual visibility correlates in the visual thalamus, whose major elements in the primate consist of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and the pulvinar.
text: The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN; also called the lateral geniculate body or lateral geniculate complex) is a relay center in the thalamus for the visual pathway.
text: The first order group includes the ventral posterior, the ventral part (parvocellular) of the medial geniculate nucleus, the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), and the anterior thalamic nuclei, which receive somatosensory, auditory, visual, and mammillary afferents, respectively.
text: Sensory nuclei (LGN, ventral posterior, and the medial geniculate nuclei) receive most of their cholinergic afferents from PPT, whereas higher order nuclei and the anterior group have a LDT component (Woolf and Butcher, 1986; Hallanger et al., 1987;
text: It applies to vision (associated thalamic nuclei: LGN, pulvinar), to audition (thalamic nuclei: dorsal and medial geniculate bodies), touch (thalamic nuclei: ventral posterior, posterior medial), motor cortices (thalamic nuclei: ventral anterior and ventral lateral) and even high order cortical areas (thalamic nuclei: medial dorsal, midline nuclei).
text: Most sensory systems are organized in a linear fashion, where peripheral organ fibers project primarily through a modality-specific thalamic nucleus (for example LGN for the visual system, MGN for the auditory system) and only then onto their respective cortical or subcortical targets.
text: The sensory areas are best understood because they are easier to study, and the best studied part of the thalamus is the lateral geniculate nucleus [LGN], which gets inputs from the retina in the eye and projects to the visual cortex at the back of the brain.
