Inferior parietal lobule encodes visual temporal resolution processes contributing to the critical flicker frequency threshold in humans.

The measurement of the Critical Flicker Frequency threshold is used to study the visual temporal resolution in healthy subjects and in pathological conditions. To better understand the role played by different cortical areas in the Critical Flicker Frequency threshold perception we used continuous T...
