  2. Parieto-occipital sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parieto-occipital_sulcus

    The lateral part of the parieto-occipital sulcus (Fig. 726) is situated about 5 cm in front of the occipital pole of the hemisphere, and measures about 1.25 cm. in length. The medial part of the parieto-occipital sulcus (Fig. 727) runs downward and forward as a deep cleft on the medial surface of the hemisphere, and joins the calcarine fissure ...

  3. Parietal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parietal_lobe

    Animation. Parietal lobe (red) of left cerebral hemisphere. The parietal lobe is defined by three anatomical boundaries: The central sulcus separates the parietal lobe from the frontal lobe; the parieto-occipital sulcus separates the parietal and occipital lobes; the lateral sulcus (sylvian fissure) is the most lateral boundary, separating it from the temporal lobe; and the longitudinal ...

  4. Superior parietal lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_parietal_lobule

    The superior parietal lobule contains Brodmann's areas 5 and 7. Behind it is the lateral part of the parieto-occipital sulcus , around the end of which it is joined to the occipital lobe by a curved gyrus , the arcus parietooccipitalis .

  6. 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 ...

  7. Lobes of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobes_of_the_brain

    The parietal lobe is positioned above the occipital lobe and behind the frontal lobe and central sulcus.. The parietal lobe integrates sensory information among various modalities, including spatial sense and navigation (proprioception), the main sensory receptive area for the sense of touch (mechanoreception) in the somatosensory cortex which is just posterior to the central sulcus in the ...

  8. Posterior cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cingulate_cortex

    The posterior cingulate cortex is bordered by the following brain regions: the marginal ramus of the cingulate sulcus (superiorly), the corpus callosum (inferiorly), the parieto-occipital sulcus (posteriorly), and Brodmann area 24 (anteriorly). [4]

  9. Occipital gyri - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_gyri

    Diagram of gyri of brain viewed on lateral hemisphere. Occipital gyri shown lower right. The border between the occipital lobe and the parietal and temporal lobes is characterized by different gyri: the superior occipital gyrus (also known as gyrus occipitalis superior), middle occipital gyrus (or gyrus occipitalis medius), inferior occipital gyrus (or gyrus occipitalis inferior), and ...
