Figure 8

Sustained and onset responders are interspersed throughout the SON. A: Coronal (left), sagittal (center), and horizontal (right) views of a standardized SON (gray hull). Locations of sustained (blue circles) and onset response patterns (red circles) for isolated neuron recordings are shown. No differences were observed in the distribution pattern of sustained and onset responders. B: Histograms of predicted CF of sustained (blue) and onset (red) responders confirm broad and similar distributions for each type across the tonotopic axis. C: Sagittal views of standardized SON (gray) showing locations of neurons with onset (left) and sustained (right) responses color-coded by CF. See color scale at left. Black arrow indicates orientation of tonotopic axes determined by MRA. Both sustained and onset responders share a dorsal (low CF) to ventral (high CF) tonotopic distribution. Abbreviations: CF, characteristic frequency; A, anterior; D, dorsal; L, lateral; M, medial; P, posterior; V, ventral.
