A–F, Myelin maps (A, B, E, F), gradients of myelin maps (C, G), and visuotopic areas of Swisher et al. (2007) of one right hemisphere (D, H) on an inflated surface. The top panels (A–D) are the left hemisphere and the bottom panels (E–H) are the right hemisphere. The most heavily myelinated IPS area is surrounded by white marks that are the same in each panel within a hemisphere. The ellipse surrounds the region that has been suggested to be the homolog of macaque area LIP by functional studies, spheres. The center of gravity of the nearby area hIP3 from Scheperjans et al. (2008a) is also shown.
