Mapping quantal touch using 7 Tesla functional magnetic resonance imaging and single-unit intraneural microstimulation

Using ultra-high field 7 Tesla (7T) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we map the cortical and perceptual responses elicited by intraneural microstimulation (INMS) of single mechanoreceptive afferent units in the median nerve, in humans. Activations are compared to those produced by apply...
