It has been hypothesized that visual mental imagery and visual perception share the same processing systems in the brain. Evidence from ERP and PET studies examining this hypothesis is conflicting. In this study we investigated whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) over the occipital pole
Recent studies suggest the existence of a visuo-tactile mirror system, comprising the primary (SI) and secondary (SII) somatosensory cortices, which matches observed touch with felt touch. Here, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was used to determine whether SI or SII play a functi
