The inferior colliculi
(a) Three orthogonal slices, coronal,
horizontal, sagittal – centered on the
anatomically defined inferior colliculi (IC) –
white circles superimposed,
The special brightness of the
inferior colliculi may be
because they have the highest
blood flow in the brain even in
the absence of stimulation.
(b) Slices centered on the anatomical
center of medial geniculate bodies (MGB)
on fMRI scans
