Somatotopic Arrangement of Eight Distinct Skin Areas in the Human Primary Somatosensory Cortex Derived from Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

2020-06-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> Blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to investigate cortical activity associated with peripheral tactile stimuli in a small cohort of healthy humans. MR-safe automated pneumatic stimulators modeled after the Wartenberg pinwheel were used to generate tactile stimuli at regular intervals on eight disparate areas of skin. The phase-encoded B...
