Figure 1

RPS and RZ are organized in a nonsomatotopic pattern in SCI subjects. (A) (Left) A map of RPS and RZ for Subject 2. Contact on the left or right forearm (solid black regions) was perceived on the ipsilateral chest region at the level of injury (stippled black regions). Arrows indicate the alignment of topography in RZ with detailed phantom sensations. (Right) Within the PoCG, the position of the forearm RZ (black filled region) and the RPS on the chest (stippled black region) would not be predicted to be adjacent. Lines perpendicular to the surface of the cortex demarcate the medial and central PoCG. (B) RPS and RZ for Subject 1. RZ are indicated by solid filled regions, and RPS by stippled regions of corresponding gray scale. As in Subject 2, this pattern of RZ and RPS does not predict somatotopic reorganization of the PoCG. See text for further description.
