TL;DR: Results show that visual stimuli activate two cortical areas right from the beginning of the cortical response, and suggest that the anteromedial cuneus has the temporal position needed to interact with the primary visual cortex V1 and thereby to modify information transferred via V1 to extrastriate cortices.

TL;DR: The first DTI and tractography results of human distal peripheral nerves are presented, showing that DTI is a quantitative method that could provide useful information for the diagnosis and follow-up of nerve lesions, entrapments, and regeneration.

TL;DR: Although both MEG and functional MR imaging can provide useful information for neurosurgical planning, in the present study, MEG proved to be superior for locating the central sulcus.

TL;DR: It is concluded that simultaneous mental contents about body scheme may be based on neural information extracted at considerably different times, resulting in fragmentation of bodily awareness.

TL;DR: The preoperative visualization of the functional anatomy of the sensorimotor strip assisted in designing the operational strategy, facilitated orientation of the neurosurgeon during the operation, and speeded up the selection of sites for intraoperative stimulation or mapping, thereby helping to prevent damage of eloquent brain areas during surgery.
