MODERN CONCEPTS OF RECOVERY and REHABILITATION-CNS AFFECTIONS (MIRROR SYSTEM)

Abstract

Mirror neurons are a particular class of visual and motor neurons, first discovered in area F5 of the premotor cortex in monkeys. To humans, brain activity they are involved in mirror neurons occurs in r parietal cortex. An important functional aspect of mirror neurons is the relationship between the motor and visual properties. All mirror neurons show a congruence between actions that respond nd motor responses that encode them. Two important hypothesis have been issued on the functional role of mirror neurons. The first is that mirror neurons activity mediates imitation, the second sustain that mirror neurons are the basis of action understanding. Mechanism makes it possible mediation by understanding others actions mirror neurons is simple. Every time an individual action taken by someone else noticed, neurons that represent that action ed in premotor cortex of the observer. This motor representation of the observed action, which is induced automatically, corresponds to that generated spontaneously during an active action, whose result is known individual. Thus, the mirror system nformation into knowledge. Structural theories are presented and related to mirror neurons and empathy. Empathy is defined as an emotional or intellectual identification with another person, living it indirectly feelings or ideas. Empathy extends beyond simple understanding of the emotional state of a person through to the other living feel. A fundamental concept is that the similarity in the mirror mechanism is activated closely with a stimulus or more from outside. The catalyst may be observing motor actions and ions such as disgust, joy or fear. In conclusion, we believe that this class of specialized cells of the brain is located in parts of its responsiveness to sensory and m (visual, olfactory, auditory, tactile). Using functional MRI to study the influence of different scents on the brain, a team of researchers exposed a subject to three types of olfactory stimuli: bad, pleasant and neutral, in order to obtain a
