We thank Dr Ben Ware, Vice President for Research and Computing of Syracuse University, for his support and encouragement. We also thank Robert Mitchell, Ex-perimental Machinist at the Institute for Sensory Research, and Alan Wallace for ideas and assistance during design and construction of the fiberscopes. Supported by NIH Grant EY04432 to Denis Pelli.

N2 - A binocular pair of fiberscopes relays high-resolution images of CRT displays from an adjacent room to an observer lying in a scanner in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) studies of visual function. We review the problems that must be overcome by any visual display for use in fMRI, present the specific solution we developed, and discuss its merits. Together, the fiberscope and CRT conveniently display accurately controlled high- and low-contrast wide-field images to an observer in an fMRI scanner.
