Visual evoked potential responses of the anesthetized cat to contrast modulation of grating patterns.

abstract：:With strict fixation, a small uniform target of medium contrast, placed at 10 deg eccentricity, faded much faster when presented on a dynamic random noise background than on either a static random noise background or a uniform background of the same luminance. Time to first disappearance was between 10 and 16 sec when...
