From: Response of SII cortex to ipsilateral, contralateral and bilateral flutter stimulation in the cat
Averaged normalized absorbance values (n = 6) obtained at 3 seconds after stimulus onset with respect to the contralateral stimulus in the anterior and posterior SII region. Computed response is the summation of the ipsilateral and contralateral responses. Left Panel: The contralateral stimulus in the anterior SII region evoked the greatest cortical response, while the ipsilateral stimulus was significantly lower. The bilateral response, however, evoked a cortical response that fell between the ipsilateral and the contralateral evoked responses. Note that the bilateral response is lower than the computed response. Right Panel: The ipsilateral response in the posterior SII region is greater than the ipsilateral response in the anterior SII region. The difference between the ipsilateral and contralateral responses is not as great in the posterior SII region as it was observed in the anterior SII region. Note that the bilateral response is larger than both the ipsilateral and contralateral responses, but still remains less than the computed value.
