  2. Paracentral lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_lobule

    In neuroanatomy, the paracentral lobule is on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere and is the continuation of the precentral and postcentral gyri.The paracentral lobule controls motor and sensory innervations of the contralateral lower extremity.

  3. Motor cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_cortex

    It is located on the anterior paracentral lobule on the medial surface. 2. The premotor cortex is responsible for some aspects of motor control, possibly including the preparation for movement, the sensory guidance of movement, the spatial guidance of reaching, or the direct control of some movements with an emphasis on control of proximal and ...

  4. Cingulate sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_sulcus

    It sends a ramus to separate the paracentral lobule from the frontal gyri, the paracentral sulcus. ... "Anatomy diagram: 13048.000-3".

  5. Precuneus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precuneus

    Sensorimotor Anterior Region. This occurs around the margin of the cingulate sulcus ( blue in figure) and is connected with sensorimotor areas of the cerebral cortex such as the paracentral lobule, supplementary motor area, premotor cortex, somatosensory area (Brodmann area 2), parietal operculum and insula. fMRI Research upon humans finds a connection with the caudalmost part of ...

  6. Lobes of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobes_of_the_brain

    The frontal lobe is located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned in front of the parietal lobe and above and in front of the temporal lobe.It is separated from the parietal lobe by a space between tissues called the central sulcus, and from the temporal lobe by a deep fold called the lateral sulcus, also called the Sylvian fissure.

  7. Paracentral sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_sulcus

    The paracentral sulcus is a sulcus of the brain. It forms the paracentral lobule's anterior border. [1] It is part of the cingulate sulcus. Gallery

  8. Cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_cortex

    The posterior cingulate cortex (Brodmann's area 23) sends projections to dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (Brodmann's area 9), anterior prefrontal cortex (Brodmann's area 10), orbitofrontal cortex (Brodmanns’ area 11), the parahippocampal gyrus, posterior part of the inferior parietal lobule, the presubiculum, the superior temporal sulcus and ...

  9. Brodmann area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area

    The maps for visual areas are retinotopic, meaning that they reflect the topography of the retina: the layer of light-activated neurons lining the back of the eye. In this case too, the representation is uneven: the fovea—the area at the center of the visual field—is greatly overrepresented compared to the periphery. The visual circuitry in ...
