Title Functional Differences Between the Midbrain and Cortical Pupillary Light Reflex Pathway: Effect on Stimulus Size
Creator Syndee Givre MD, PhD; R. Kardon MD, PhD
Affiliation Iowa City, Iowa
Subject Light Reflex; Functional Pathways; Midbrain; Pupil
Description To differentiate two functional pathways of the pupil light reflex; the classical midbrain pathway and a cortical, postgeniculate pathway. It is hypothesized that the midbrain pathway is favored using larger-sized light stimuli (20??in diameter) and the cortical pathway is favored using smaller-sized stimuli (4?? in diameter).
