Analysis of the postnatal growth of visual cortex
Abstract
Development and growth of V1 begins during embryogenesis and continues postnatally. The growth of V1 has direct implications on the organization of features such as the retinotopic map and the pattern of visual cortical columns. We have examined the postnatal growth and two-dimensional shape of V1 in macaque monkeys, cats, and rats. The perimeter, area, and anterior-posterior length of V1 were measured from unfolded and flattened sections from …
