Odors are typically bimodal in nature, interacting with the olfactory and trigeminal systems.
The trigeminal component may be noticed (eg menthol) or perceptually ignored, leading to …

How the pleasantness of chemosensory stimuli such as odorants or intranasal trigeminal
compounds is processed in the human brain has been the focus of considerable recent …

What is known as an odor object is an integrated representation constructed from physical
features, and perceptual attributes mainly mediated by the olfactory and trigeminal systems …

Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate that functional MRI (fMRI) combined with a
questionnaire is a useful method for studying the neuroanatomy of olfaction. Further studies …

It is well known that most odorants stimulate both the olfactory system and the trigeminal
system. However, the overlap between the brain processes involved in each of these …

Given the strong relationship between human olfaction and emotion, it is not surprising that
numerous studies have investigated human response to hedonic and arousing qualities of …

So-called bimodal odorants are able to stimulate the intranasal trigeminal system at
relatively low concentrations. Using them as stimuli, the current study focused on the …

OBJECTIVES: Odor perception does not simply consist in hierarchical processing from
transduction to a single “true” cerebral representation. Odor sensation may be modulated by …

Odor identification (OI) tests are increasingly used clinically as biomarkers for Alzheimer's
disease and schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to directly compare the neuronal …

It is well known that most odorants stimulate the trigeminal system but the time course of the
brain regions activated by these chemical stimulations remains poorly documented …
