Abstract

A strong relationship between cortical folding and the location of primary sensory areas in the human brain is well established. However, it is unknown if coupling between functional responses and gross anatomy is found at higher stages of sensory processing. We examined the relationship between cortical folding and the location of the retinotopic maps hV4 and VO1, which are intermediate stages in the human ventral visual processing stream. Our data show a consistent arrangement of the eccentricity maps within hV4 and VO1 with respect to anatomy, with the consequence that the hV4/VO1 boundary is found consistently in the posterior transverse collateral sulcus (ptCoS) despite individual variability in map size and cortical folding. Understanding this relationship allowed us to predict the location of visual areas hV4 and VO1 in a separate set of individuals, using only their anatomies, with >85% accuracy. These findings have important implications for understanding the relation between cortical folding and functional maps as well as for defining visual areas from anatomical landmarks alone.

摘要

大脑皮层折叠与人类大脑初级感觉区位置之间的紧密关系已得到充分证实。然而,在感觉处理的更高阶段,功能反应与大体解剖结构之间是否存在耦合尚不清楚。我们研究了皮层折叠与视网膜拓扑图hV4和VO1位置之间的关系,这两个区域是人类腹侧视觉处理流中的中间阶段。我们的数据显示,hV4和VO1内的偏心率图在解剖学上具有一致的排列,结果是尽管图的大小和皮层折叠存在个体差异,但hV4/VO1边界始终位于后横侧沟(ptCoS)中。了解这种关系使我们能够仅根据解剖结构预测另一组个体中视觉区域hV4和VO1的位置,准确率超过85%。这些发现对于理解皮层折叠与功能图之间的关系以及仅从解剖学标志定义视觉区域具有重要意义。
