Visual Luminance Pathways

Visual Luminance Pathways is a neurophysiological construct that refers to the specialized neural circuits in the visual system responsible for encoding and transmitting spatial and temporal variations in luminance contrast from the retina to higher cortical areas via distinct parallel pathways, primarily the magnocellular and parvocellular streams, to support form, motion, and depth perception.
