Design and apparatus for quantification of the mapping of the sensory areas of the brain
TS-039164 — A new tool that can quantify the sensory maps
of the human brain. The tool can be used to quantify plasticity and pathology in the sensory areas
of the human brain that are associated with normal and abnormal development, aging, and diseases in sensory systems. The first application
of the tool, on retinotopic maps
of the visual cortex, has generated excellent results.
By analyzing the stimulus­-referred fMRI responses in each voxel of an MR image, retinotopic mapping of human visual cortex can generate cortical maps of the visual space. These maps elucidate the spatial organization of the neuronal responses to visual images. Although numerous studies have b…
