Abstract
Revealed that a single suprathreshold stimulus induced a positive BOLD response both in the ipsilateral as well as in the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1). The contralateral co-activation of the homotopic M1 should be a functional correlate of transcallosal connections. If a contralateral conditioning stimulus preceded the test stimulus by 10Â ms (IHI), the subsequent ipsilateral BOLD signal was significantly reduced. We find that cortical inhibitory processes are accompanied by attenuation of the local neurovascular signal.
