Figure 5. Percentage of supra-threshold voxels within 2–7° eccentricities across dorsal V1, V2, V3.

Figure 5

A Data from macaque L02, 681 days post-lesioning. The bar height corresponds to the percentage of voxels within eccentricities 2–7° with coherence at least one standard deviation above the noise levels (Materials and Methods) relative to the total number of voxels sampled per area 0–7°. Black versus red bars correspond to data derived from the non-lesioned versus lesioned hemispheres, respectively. The effect of the lesion is manifest by the nearly complete absence of significantly activated voxels between eccentricities 2–7° in V1 of the lesioned hemisphere. The percentage of voxels within the same eccentricity range in areas V2 and V3 LPZs (red bars) remains below normal levels (black bars), but is markedly increased compared to the percentages measured in the lesioned part of V1. B Similar bar plot for macaque Q02, 188 days post-lesioning. Note that this animal had a weaker but still clear visual modulation response inside the V2, V3 LPZ.
