optic chiasm

Examples of chiasm

chiasm
Visual processing of the text begins in the retina and progresses by way of the optic nerve to the optic chiasm and then the optic tract.
A 5-mm hole was drilled in the skull either directly over bregma for optic chiasm recordings or 1.5 mm lateral to bregma for optic tract recordings.
Electrodes were advanced into the brain either 0.5 mm anterior to bregma (optic chiasm) or 1.5 mm lateral to bregma (optic tract) through a protective guide tube.
Pathfinding at the mammalian optic chiasm.
In eutherian mammals, axons originating from temporal retina travel intermingled with the main body of the optic nerve up to the midline of the optic chiasm where decussation takes place.
For electrical stimulation of the optic chiasm, a low-impedance bipolar electrode was implanted and fixed to the skull with dental acrylic cement.
During development, axons from the temporal retina make an abrupt turn within the chiasm.
Stereoperception in cats following section of the corpus callosum and 0or the optic chiasm.
Immunoreactivity is strong on the interfascicular glia throughout the optic nerve, but is poor in the central chiasm.
These monocular regions received transneuronal input from the contralateral eye, indicating that a small population of temporal ganglion cells erroneously decussated at the optic chiasm.
The underlying optic chiasm was then cut in the midsagittal plane.
This shows that the time necessary for the terminalisation of chiasms and separation of homologous chromosomes can be greatly shortened.
Postsynaptic potentials recorded in neurons of the cat's lateral geniculate nucleus following electrical stimulation of the optic chiasm.
However, such dual innervation is rare, and we did not observe dual optic chiasm latencies for any of the geniculate cells in this study.
Domains of regulatory gene expression and the developing optic chiasm: correspondence with retinal axon paths and candidate signaling cells.
