Counter-stimulatory effects on pain perception and processing are significantly altered by attention: an fMRI study.

abstract：:One mechanism thought to mediate hand and upper limb control across motor cortices is called interhemispheric inhibition (IHI). Somatosensory cortices are important in the motor control of the hand, although the neural mechanisms by which somatic loci act are not fully understood. In the present study, we study the po...
