Differenze nella proiezione somatosensoriale ai due campi citoarchitettonici (aree 6 e 4) della corteccia motrice del Gatto
The peripheral reactivity of cortical area 6 () of the Cat has been examined, in order to compare its features with those of the peripheral reactivity of area 4 (). Peripheral stimulation was actuated by single shocks to the skin applied in sequence by means of several needle-electrodes thrust into standard locations of limbs, trunk, neck and of the whisker region. With conventional electrophysiological techniques, in 19 animals extracellular records from 323 cortical neurones were obtained, 258...
