Journal ArticleDOI

Klaus L. Leenders,Daniela Perani,Adriaan A. Lammertsma,J. D. Heather,Buckingham Pd,M. J. R. Healy,J. M. Gibbs,Richard J. S. Wise,Jun Hatazawa,S. Herold,R. P. Beaney,David J. Brooks,Terry J. Spinks,Christopher G. Rhodes,R. S J Frackowiak,Terry Jones +15 more
TL;DR: The results suggest diminished neuronal firing or decreased dendritic synaptic density with age, as well as a strict coupling between CMRO2 and CBF, and between CBF and CBV was found, while OER was constant and independent ofCBF andCMRO2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of grasp representations in humans by PET: 1. Observation versus execution
Giacomo Rizzolatti,Luciano Fadiga,Massimo Matelli,Valentino Bettinardi,Eraldo Paulesu,Daniela Perani,F. Fazio +6 more
TL;DR: For example, this paper found that grasp observation significantly activates the cortex of the middle temporal gyrus including that of the adjacent superior temporal sulcus and the caudal part of the left inferior frontal gyrus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Listening to Action-related Sentences Activates Fronto-parietal Motor Circuits
Marco Tettamanti,Giovanni Buccino,Maria Cristina Saccuman,Vittorio Gallese,Massimo Danna,Paola Scifo,Ferruccio Fazio,Giacomo Rizzolatti,Stefano F. Cappa,Daniela Perani +9 more
TL;DR: The results showed that listening to action-related sentences activates a left fronto-parieto-temporal network that includes the pars opercularis of the inferior frontal gyrus (Broca's area), as well as the inferior parietal lobule, the intraparietal sulcus, and the posterior middle temporal gyrus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping motor representations with positron emission tomography
Jean Decety,Daniela Perani,Marc Jeannerod,Valentino Bettinardi,B. Tadary,Roger P. Woods,John C. Mazziotta,F. Fazio +7 more
TL;DR: Brain activity was mapped in normal subjects during passive obser-vation of the movements of an 'alien' hand and while imagining grasping objects with their own hand to support the notion that motor learning during observation of movements and mental practice involves rehearsal of neural pathways related to cognitive stages of motor control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain activity during observation of actions. Influence of action content and subject's strategy.
Jean Decety,Julie Grèzes,Nicolas Costes,Daniela Perani,Marc Jeannerod,Emmanuel Procyk,F. Grassi,F. Fazio +7 more
TL;DR: The pattern of brain activation during observation of actions is dependent both on the nature of the required executive processing and the type of the extrinsic properties of the action presented.
