Central processing of tactile inputs from the hand begins in the main cuneate nucleus and continues in the thalamus and area 3b cortex. Little is known about cuneate functional organization in primates or about how cuneate and area 3b organization are related. In this study, neurophysiologic approac

In the present study, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to examine pain perception in humans. Three types of noxious stimuli were presented: electric shock (20.8 mA, 2 Hz), heat (48°C), and mechanical, as well as a control tactile stimulus. The significance of activation at the l
