The minipig model is of high interest for brain research in nutrition and associated pathologies considering the similarities to human nutritional physiology, brain structures and functions1,2 . In the context of a gustatory stimulation paradigm, fMRI can provide crucial information about the sensory, cognitive and hedonic integration of exteroceptive stimuli in healthy and pathological nutritional conditions. To date, this is the first intent to describe gustatory stimulation in minipigs using fMRI.
