  • Title: [The role of the medial geniculate bodies in analyzing sounds].
    Author: Kalinina TE.
    Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 1976; 26(2):333-42. PubMed ID: 1274465.
    Abstract:
    Elaboration and manifestation of motor alimentary conditioned reflexes were studied after a lesion of medial geniculate bodies (MGB) in adult cats. No substantial disturbance were recorded of the capacity for pitch analysis. In the case of more extensive MGB lesions, there were some difficulties in the elaboration of tone differentiations but not in their achievement. Additional temporo-parietal cortical ablation drastically reduced the animals' capacity for anlysing sound frequencies and more profoundly disturbed their capacity for inhibitory reactions.
