The　retinotopic　characteristics　on　human　peripheral　vision　are　still　not　well　known.　The　position,　surface　area　and　visual　field　representation　of　human　visual　areas　V1,　V2　and　V3　were　measured　using　fMRI　in　8　subjects　(16　hemispheres).　Cortical　visual　field　maps　of　the　120deg　were　measured　using　rotating　wedge　and　expanding　ring　stimuli.　The　boundaries　between　areas　were　identified　using　an　automated　procedure　to　fit　an　atlas　of　the　expected　visual　field　map　to　the　data.　All　position　and　surface　area　measurements　were　made　along　the　boundary　between　white　matter　and　gray　matter.　In　this　study,　we　developed　a　new　visual　presentation　system　widest　view　(60　deg　of　eccentricity).　The　wide-view　visual　presentation　system　was　made　from　nonmagnetic　optical　fibers　and　a　contact　lens,　so　can　use　in　general　clinical　fMRI　condition　and　the　cost　is　lower.　We　used　the　newly　wide　view　visual　presentation　system,　the　representation　of　the　visual　field　in　areas　V1,　V2　and　V3　spans　about　2223　mm∧2,1679　mm∧2　and　1690　mm∧2.　©　2009　Springer-Verlag　Berlin　Heidelberg.
