Fine-grained nociceptive maps in primary somatosensory cortex

, 2012
Topographic maps of the receptive surface are a fundamental feature of neural organization in many sensory systems. While touch is finely mapped in the cerebral cortex, it remains controversial how precise any cortical nociceptive map may be.
