Previous studies demonstrated the existence of hand and tool areas in lateral and ventral occipitotemporal cortex (OTC), as well as an overlap between them. We reinvestigated this organization using 7T fMRI, benefiting from a higher signal-to-noise ratio than 3T. This enabled us to include a wider array of categories to achieve a more holistic perspective, and to omit certain spatial preprocessing steps. Despite these improvements, univariate analysis confirmed the existence of hand-tool overlap across OTC, which is striking given the omission of the spatial preprocessing steps that can influence overlap. There was significantly more overlap between hands and tools, compared to other overlap types in the left hemisphere of OTC. The overlap was also larger in the left lateral OTC as compared to the right lateral OTC. We found in all hand areas a differentiation between tools and other types of objects, although they still responded more to bodies than to tools. Regarding the tool areas, we observed a differentiation between hands and other categories such as faces and non-tool objects. Left hemisphere tool areas also differentiated between hands and bodies. When excluding the overlapping voxels from the hand and tool areas, they still showed a significant response to tools or hands (compared to objects or faces) respectively. Multi-voxel pattern analysis indicated that neural representations in the hand areas showed greater similarity between hands and tools than between hands and other objects. In the tool areas, the neural representations between tools and hands and between tools and other type of objects were all equally similar. To summarize, capitalizing on the benefits of 7T fMRI, we further substantiate the evidence in favor of hand-tool overlap in several regions of occipitotemporal cortex.
