area V2 (V2)
The term
area V2 refers to an area defined by multiple criteria in a belt around the
occipital lobe that includes parts of the
cuneus, the
lingual gyrus and the
middle occipital gyrus in
humans and
macaques. It is located largely between area V1 and
area V3 in
early visual cortex. It is distinguished from surrounding areas by cytoarchitecture, myelination, resting state functional activity, and absence of functional
connectivity with the
lateral geniculate nucleus. Other authors have referred to the same topological area as 18, hOC2, OB, or BA18 (
Glasser-2016 ).
Also known as: area V2, second visual area
