[Abstract] The traditional retinotopic mapping used the traveling wave method and functional magnetic resonance imaging to study the topological mapping relationship between the retina and the visual cortex, and achieved a huge of finding in the division and function of human visual cortex non-invasively. Recently, combined with functional magnetic resonance imaging, a model of the population receptive field (pRF) were developed, and estimated the visual field maps more accurate than those obtained using conventional visual field mapping. Importantly, more detail characteristics about the pRF of visual field were found in laterally studies. In addition to functional of visual cortex, pRF technique has been widely applied on visual attention and visual disorders of clinical diseases. However, this technique was still rarely reported in depth in China. In this review, we main focused on the pRF technique which is the latest progress of fMRI in the field of vision.
