gustatory modality การใช้

• In fact the tongue representation is bilateral in both modalities, but predominantly ipsilateral in the gustatory modality and predominantly contralateral in the tactile modality.
• The "'posterior insula "'is characterized by connections with auditory, somatosensory, and premotor areas, and is not related to the olfactory or gustatory modalities.
• Contrary to a largely crossed cortical representation of the limbs and other exteroceptive body sites, the tongue has been traditionally thought to enjoy a bilateral representation in the cortex for both somatic and gustatory modalities.
