Abstract
Our results suggest that the SI is involved in processing sensory-discriminative aspects of visceral sensation. In contrast, activity in the mid-ACC suggests that this region is multifunctional because it appears to be involved in sensory and cognitive appraisal of visceral pain; the right prefrontal cortex seems to be involved in only cognitive responses to pain.
