Secondary post-geniculate involvement in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is characterized by retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration with the preferential involvement of those forming the papillomacular bundle. The optic nerve is considered the main pathological target for LHON. Our

Medio-dorsal thalamus and confabulations: Evidence from a clinical case and combined MRI/DTI study

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2016
The Medio-Dorsal Nuclei (MDN) including the thalamic magnocellular and parvocellular thalamic regions has been implicated in verbal memory function. In a 77 year old lady, with a prior history of a clinically silent infarct of the left MDN, we observed ...

ASYMMETRY IN REGARD TO THE EFFECTS OF MAGNOCELLULAR AND PARVOCELLULAR LESIONS

, 2021
The placing of lesions in the magno- and parvocellular layers of the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (LGN) of the visual stream has been used in attempts to assess the contributions of the two systems to various visual tasks. However, because there are about ten times as many parvocellular cells as magnocellular cells a lesion blocking the parvocellular ...
