Zusammenfassung
Visual self-motion perception, circularvection (CV), is induced in a stationary observer by large-field visual motion stimulation. The observer perceives the moving surroundings as being stable and himself as being moved. Earlier PET and fMRI studies of CV showed activations in the parieto-occipital (PO) and temporo-occipital cortex, as well as deactivations in the posterior insula [1, 2]. The aim of this fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET study was to define areas involved in the processing of specific aspects of CV induced by coherent clockwise visual motion stimulation. Therefore, correlation analyses were performe…
