↵aThe averaged ipsilateral/contralateral volume ratios for the infant, adult, and late-life groups were 51.5%, 57.4%, and 54.7%, respectively. The average volumes of the contralateral LGN were estimated 10.08, 10.8, and 11.29 mm3 for the three groups, which were comparable with the median LGN volume of 4 adult marmosets with no V1 lesions, 10.31 mm3, as reported by Atapour et al. (2017). These values were also comparable with previous estimates of the volume of the marmoset LGN (Fritschy and Garey, 1986a; White et al., 1998; Warner et al., 2015).
