Somatotopy in the Human Somatosensory System [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018 Previous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have demonstrated digit somatotopy in primary somatosensory cortex (SI), and even shown that at high spatial resolution it is possible to resolve within-digit somatotopy. However, fMRI studies

Potential mechanisms of acupuncture for neuropathic pain based on somatosensory system [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Neuropathic pain, caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory system, is common and distressing. In view of the high human and economic burden, more effective treatment strategies were urgently needed.

Motor actions are spatially organized in motor and dorsal premotor cortex
eLife, 2023 Frontal motor areas are central to controlling voluntary movements. In non-human primates, the motor areas contain independent, somatotopic, representations of the forelimb (i.e., motor maps).
