description The purpose of the present study was to assess the somatotopy of the cortical sensory representation of the fingers using a natural tactile stimulation of the glabrous skin. Multislice echoplanar imaging techniques were utilized to investigate blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal changes as a measure of cortical activation. Repetitive sensory stimulation of the glabrous skin of digit II–III and digit IV–V resulted in a multifocal signal increase in a restricted area near the central sulcus in the contralateral hemisphere with a considerable overlap between the activated areas of digit II–III and digit IV–V. In addition, in all subjects tactile stimulation resulted in ipsilateral signal increase near the central sulcus, which was 15–22% of the contralateral effect. Stimulation of digit II–III caused significantly ( P
