Visual Processing in Macaque Area MT/V5 and Its Satellites (MSTd and MSTv)

  • Chapter
Extrastriate Cortex in Primates

Part of the book series: Cerebral Cortex ((CECO,volume 12))

Abstract

It is now well established that monkey extrastriate cortex, the visual cortex beyond primary or striate cortex, contains many different areas (for review, see Van Essen et al., 1992; Felleman and Van Essen, 1991). Of these 30 or so extra-striate areas, a small group in the caudal superior temporal sulcus (STS) stands out because their neurons share the property of direction selectivity, suggesting that these areas might be involved in the analysis of retinal motion and in motion perception. A large number of studies have been devoted to substantiating and clarifying the role of the middle temporal (MT) area, also referred to as V5, and that of its satellites, the dorsal and ventral parts of the medial superior temporal (MST) visual area. Although area MT/V5 was discovered almost simultaneously in macaque monkeys (Zeki, 1969, 1971) and in owl monkeys (Allman and Kaas, 1971) and there are a number of similarities between these areas of the two species, this review will be restricted to the macaque monkey. Indeed, with the passage of time, differences between MT of the two species have become apparent (Sereno and Allman, 1991; Zeki, 1980) and the macaque as a species is closer to the human (Ciochon and Chiarelli, 1980). A further restriction will be that for the physiological studies preference will be given to the more recent, quantitative data. Since the physiology of macaque visual cortex, and particularly of area MT/V5 and its satellites, has been a major source of inspiration for recent human functional imaging work, the homologues of MT/V5 and MST in humans will be briefly discussed.
