Off-center Organization

OFF-Center Organization is a type of retinal ganglion cell receptive field architecture characterized by decreased firing in response to light increments in the central region, in contrast to increased firing elicited by surrounding illumination, thereby exhibiting center-surround antagonism with an inhibitory center and excitatory surround.
