Novel Methods for the Visualization and Analysis of Functional Maps in Cortex

Flat Maps 30 D Figure 14: Stimulus, resulting wave on cortex, and eccentricity map A: Expanding ring stimulus; B: The black lines show the regions of interest; The points on the lines lie within the calcarine sulcus; C: Traveling Wave in V1; Time course of fMRI signal along the left line (left calcarine sulcus) ! traveling wave; Source: [Wandell, 1995 #12]; D: Color-coded eccentricity map; Different colors correspond to different phase values; See text for details; Source: Stanford Uni- versity, VISTA (Vision and Imaging Science and Technology Activities)
