Sometimes when I am thinking about visual system, my memory also "connected" to my friend who is cardiologist.
we know that at visual cortex there are area V1 V2 and so on.
In cardiology we also know Lead V1 V2 and so on. Are there any relationship between the visual pathway and the cardiology pathway ? If there are none, how to delete one of them from our memory ?
There is no relationship between v1 and v2 visual area cortex, which is a functional area of the brain. Leads v1 & v2, those are ECG Leads that are attatched to chest for the purpose of doing ECG. One is a part of Human body located in the brain another is part of instrument for the purpose of investigation of heart in relation to electrical activity. If you are working with human body deletete ECG Lead v1v2.
There is no relationship between v1 and so on visual area cortex and ECG Lead v1v2 ...
V in brain that means:visual
V in ECG means: voltage
Cardiac chest leads record vectors therefore the mame is V1 V2 V3 and so on.
Visual cortex with variable structure and functions gets its name from the given fact with different numbers dentote variabolity but each one with same prefix V , Where V stands for VISUAL
