Hiroshi Oishi received "Merit Abstract Award" for his presentation at Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) 2021 Annual Meeting.
Title: Quantitative structural mapping of the lateral geniculate nucleus subdivisions in living human brain
Author: Hiroki Oishi, Hiromasa Takemura, Kaoru Amano (The University of Tokyo)
Summary:
Oishi et al. used the latest quantitative MRI method (MTV mapping) to precisely measure the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), which is a crucial area for visual processing in the brain. They established a new method to identify subdivisions of the LGN in living human brains, which were difficult to identify by conventional structural imaging methods.
