Thalamocortical connections of the primary somatosensory cortex
Although each subdivision of primary somatosensory cortex (SI) receives dense input from the thalamus, but the exact location and type of information that the fibers convey have not been identified yet. In the present study, the exact source of thalamocortical fibers to areas 2 and 3b was investigated using tract-tracing techniques. Following injection of tracer into area 3b, labeled neurons ...
متن کاملVision of the body modulates processing in primary somatosensory cortex.
Viewing the body affects somatosensory processing, even when entirely non-informative about stimulation. While several studies have reported effects of viewing the body on cortical processing of touch and pain, the neural locus of this modulation remains unclear. We investigated whether seeing the body modulates processing in primary somatosensory cortex (SI) by measuring short-latency somatose...
متن کاملPrimary Somatosensory and Motor Cortex
Figure 1. The gross anatomy of the brain is shown from a lateral (a) and medial (b) view. The wrinkled outer surface that covers the majority of the brain is the cerebral cortex. In panel (a) labels illustrate some of the areas of localized function including primary motor cortex on the precentral gyrus (M1) and primary somatosensory cortex on the postcentral gyrus (S1). Other primary sensory c...
متن کاملDistributed digit somatotopy in primary somatosensory cortex.
We obtained high-resolution somatotopic maps of the human digits using 4.0 T functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In separate experiments, the volar surface of either the right thumb, index, or ring finger was stimulated in a sliding-window fashion in both distal-to-proximal and proximal-to-distal directions using a custom-built pneumatic apparatus. Analysis of the functional images wa...
متن کاملWidespread spatial integration in primary somatosensory cortex.
Tactile discrimination depends on integration of information from the discrete receptive fields (RFs) of peripheral sensory afferents. Because this information is processed over a hierarchy of subcortical nuclei and cortical areas, the integration likely occurs at multiple levels. The current study presents results indicating that neurons across most of the extent of the hand representation in ...
