[TA] (strata magnocellularia [TA]) and four parvocellular layers [TA] (strata parvocellularia
[TA]) and serves as a processing station in the major pathway from the retina to the
cerebral cortex, receiving fibers from the optic tract and giving rise to the geniculocalcarine
radiation to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe.;
