Linked from

The 10 pages that link to Lateral geniculate nucleus, each with the reason it gives.

• Opponent process theoryRelated: Its color-sensitive neurons carry opponent responses onward from the retina.

• ThalamusBroader topic: It is a well-studied example of a sensory relay nucleus.

• Optic nerveRelated: Most fibers continuing from the optic nerve pathway synapse here.

• Retinal ganglion cellRelated: Many ganglion-cell axons terminate here, a major first relay in the brain.

• Visual cortexRelated: It sends the main feedforward visual pathway to primary visual cortex.

• Primary visual cortexRelated: Most visual information reaches V1 through this thalamic relay.

• Visual systemBroader topic: It is a major relay between the eyes and primary visual cortex.

• Occipital lobeRelated: It routes much of the incoming visual information to primary visual cortex.

• Human visual systemRelated: Nearly all signals from eye to cortex pass through this bottleneck.

• Human visionRelated: The bottleneck every visual signal passes through between eye and cortex.
