Localization of the motor hand area to a knob on the precentral gyrus. A new landmark.
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) we have evaluated the anatomical location of the motor hand area. The segment of the precentral gyrus that most often contained motor hand function was a knob-like structure, that is shaped like an omega or epsilon in the axial plane and like a hook in the sagittal plane. On the cortical surface of cadaver specimens this precentral knob corresp...
متن کاملThe activity in the contralateral primary motor cortex, dorsal premotor and supplementary motor area is modulated by performance gains
There is growing experimental evidence that the engagement of different brain areas in a given motor task may change with practice, although the specific brain activity patterns underlying different stages of learning, as defined by kinematic or dynamic performance indices, are not well understood. Here we studied the change in activation in motor areas during practice on sequences of handwriti...
متن کاملFacilitation from ventral premotor cortex of primary motor cortex outputs to macaque hand muscles.
We demonstrate that in the macaque monkey there is robust, short-latency facilitation by ventral premotor cortex (area F5) of motor outputs from primary motor cortex (M1) to contralateral intrinsic hand muscles. Experiments were carried out on two adult macaques under light sedation (ketamine plus medetomidine HCl). Facilitation of hand muscle electromyograms (EMG) was tested using arrays of fi...
متن کاملPronounced reduction of digit motor responses evoked from macaque ventral premotor cortex after reversible inactivation of the primary motor cortex hand area.
In common with other secondary motor areas, the macaque ventral premotor cortex (PMv) gives rise to corticospinal projections; it also makes numerous reciprocal corticocortical connections with the primary motor cortex (M1). Repetitive intracortical microstimulation (rICMS) of the PMv gives rise to movements of the hand and digits. To investigate whether these motor effects are dependent on the...
متن کاملMotor cortex excitability in focal epilepsies not including the primary motor area--a TMS study.
It is unclear whether focal epilepsies chronically influence the processing of cortex distant to the epileptogenic zone. Therefore, motor cortex excitability was analysed in patients with temporal and extratemporal epilepsies whose epileptogenic zones did not include the primary motor area. Single and paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was applied to the primary motor cortex i...
