Negative blood oxygenation level dependent homunculus and somatotopic information in primary motor cortex and supplementary motor area.
A crucial attribute in movement encoding is an adequate balance between suppression of unwanted muscles and activation of required ones. We studied movement encoding across the primary motor cortex (M1) and supplementary motor area (SMA) by inspecting the positive and negative blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) signals in these regions. Using periodic and event-related experiments incorpo...
متن کاملOn somatotopic representation centers for finger movements in human primary motor cortex and supplementary motor area.
We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to examine the representation pattern for repetitive voluntary finger movements in the primary motor cortex (M1) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) of humans. Healthy right-handed participants performed repetitive individuated flexion-extension movements of digits 1, 2, and 3 using the dominant hand. Contralateral functional labeling for the gro...
متن کاملComparison of neuronal activity in the supplementary motor area and primary motor cortex.
Neuronal activity in the supplementary motor area (SMA) and primary motor cortex (MI) have been compared in many experiments during performance of many different motor tasks. On one hand, the activity in both areas may appear similar, especially when the motor task is simple. On the other hand, if the motor tasks are more demanding, neuronal activity in the SMA exhibits a variety of complex rel...
متن کاملfMRI evaluation of somatotopic representation in human primary motor cortex.
We used fMRI to map foot, elbow, fist, thumb, index finger, and lip movements in 30 healthy subjects. For each movement type confidence intervals of representational sites in the primary motor cortex (M1) were evaluated. In order to improve the precision of their anatomical localization and to optimize the mapping of cortical activation sites, we used both the assessment of locations in the con...
متن کاملConstraints on somatotopic organization in the primary motor cortex.
Since the 1870s, the primary motor cortex (M1) has been known to have a somatotopic organization, with different regions of cortex participating in control of face, arm, and leg movements. Through the middle of the 20th century, it seemed possible that the principle of somatotopic organization extended to the detailed representation of different body parts within each of the three major represe...
