Figure 2: Intra-group analysis of functional connectivity seeded from the peripheral EVC (central EVC regressed).

From: Reorganization of early visual cortex functional connectivity following selective peripheral and central visual loss

Figure 2

The maps are shown in mesh for the (A) afferented peripheral EVC (normal vision); * the dotted line on the median aspect of the brain represents the seed region (peripheral EVC) (B) isolated afferented peripheral EVC (Stargardt macular dystrophy) (C) deafferented peripheral EVC (retinitis pigmentosa tunnel vision). Yellow-orange depicts areas of higher positive functional connectivity for each group, and green-blue higher negative functional connectivity.
