Zusammenfassung

Mirror neurons were first described in the monkey premotor cortex (area F5) and are defined as neurons that are activated both when a goal directed action is performed and when the same action is observed (Rizzolatti et al., 1996, Gallese et al., 1996). However, the exact functional anatomy of mirror neurons in humans is still disputed. A wealth of literature showed that „mirror neuron's“ activity is localized particularly in the pars opercularis (BA44) within the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) at the border to the premotor cortex (BA6) and within the anterior intraparietal sulcus (AIP). In 2005, the general opini…
