Experimental and clinical studies in primates indicate that visual information is stored and retrieved by interactions between the temporal association area and the medial temporal lobe structures. Recent findings from single-neuron recordings have provided new evidence that perceptual aspects of the temporal neocortex are closely related to its memory function based on association. They further suggest that imagery is also implemented by the same neural mechanism that subserves memory retrieval.
对灵长类动物的实验和临床研究表明，视觉信息通过颞叶联合区与内侧颞叶结构之间的相互作用进行存储和提取。单神经元记录的最新发现提供了新的证据，表明颞叶新皮质的感知方面与其基于关联的记忆功能密切相关。这些发现进一步表明，意象也是由支持记忆提取的相同神经机制实现的。
