Abstract
Although activation of the lateral geniculate nucleus has been detected by functional magnetic resonance imaging with magnetic field strengths higher than 2.0 Tesla, there have been no reports of functional magnetic resonance imaging of the lateral geniculate nucleus with the more widely available 1.5 Tesla scanner. The authors used functional magnetic resonance imaging techniques at 1.5 Tesla to detect lateral geniculate nucleus activation in five of seven healthy subjects. This study shows that visual activation of the lateral geniculate nucleus can be obtained with functional magnetic resonance imaging using conventional 1.5 Tesla scanners.
