True memories are associated with a broader activation in the visual cortex, including both the primary visual cortex and visual association areas, reflecting a more detailed and sensory-rich recollection. False memories, lacking the same sensory and detail richness, primarily activate the visual association areas, which are involved in the processing of more abstract or conceptual information.
