Figure 1From: Intra- and inter-hemispheric effective connectivity in the human somatosensory cortex during pressure stimulationAn MR compatible stimulation device. A neonatal cuff (A) wrapped around the right index fingertip (B: front view; C: side view) exerted a pressure stimulus of 5.98Â g/mm2 by expanding at the turn-on of the pump in a blood pressure monitor through an elastic air-tube. It pressed the whole ventral surface of the fingertip for 3Â s in each stimulus period.Back to article page
