The ability to perceive one's position and directional heading relative to landmarks is necessary for successful navigation within an environment. Recent studies have shown that the visual system dominantly controls the neural representations of directional heading and location when familiar visual cues are available, and several neural circuits, or streams, have been proposed to be crucial for visual information processing. Here, we summarize the evidence that the dorsal presubiculum (also known as the postsubiculum) is critically important for the direct transfer of visual landmark information to spatial signals within the limbic system.
感知自身相对于地标物的位置和朝向的能力是在环境中成功导航所必需的。最近的研究表明，当有熟悉的视觉线索时，视觉系统主要控制着朝向和位置的神经表示，并且已经提出了几个神经回路或流对于视觉信息处理至关重要。在这里，我们总结了证据，表明背侧前下托（也称为后下托）对于将视觉地标信息直接传输到边缘系统内的空间信号至关重要。
