Abstract

Functional neuroimaging of individuals before and after they underwent an arm amputation shows that the map of the missing limb in somatosensory cortex remains stable after amputation, with no evidence of reorganization of either the hand or the face, challenging long-standing theories of brain remapping after limb loss.

大脑的身体地图不会忘记失去的肢体
