## Abstract The cortical representation of the trunk zone in the human first somatosensory area was studied with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to establish whether the cutaneous regions close to the midline are represented in this area of both hemispheres. Cortical activation foci ev
Receptive fields defined for small clusters of neurons within the middle cortical layers of area 3b differed little in size or in the skin locations represented among: a) alert, b) nitrous oxide-anesthetized, c) deep sodium pentobarbital-anesthetized, and d) ketamine-anesthetized owl monkeys. Repeat
