The parietal-temporal-occipital (PTO) association area, also referred to as the temporo-parieto-occipital (TPO) junction, is an area within the cerebral cortex where the parietal, temporal and occipital lobes meet. [1] High level of interpreting meaningful signals in the surrounding sensory area. They have functional subareas:
The temporoparietal junction (TPJ) is an area of the brain where the temporal and parietal lobes meet, at the posterior end of the lateral sulcus (Sylvian fissure). The TPJ incorporates information from the thalamus and the limbic system as well as from the visual, auditory, and somatosensory systems. The TPJ also integrates information from ...
It is located primarily in the most rostral portions of the superior temporal gyrus and the middle temporal gyrus. Cytoarchitecturally it is bounded caudally by the inferior temporal area 20 , the middle temporal area 21 , the superior temporal area 22 and the ectorhinal area 36 (Brodmann-1909).
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 ...
Area 39 was regarded by Alexander Luria as a part of the parietal-temporal-occipital area, which includes Brodmann area 40, Brodmann area 19, and Brodmann area 37. Damage to the left Brodmann area 39 may result in dyslexia or in semantic aphasia. [1] Albert Einstein had less neurones (relative to glial cells) in this (left sided) area than ...
the temporo-parieto-occipital junction of the brain thyroid peroxidase (or thyroperoxidase), an enzyme in the thyroid thrombopoietin , a hormone stimulating platelet growth
Rightward asymmetry can be seen in the right central sulcus (potentially suggesting increased connectivity between motor and somatosensory cortices in the left side of the brain), lateral ventricle, entorhinal cortex, amygdala and temporo-parieto-occipital area. Sex-dependent brain asymmetries are also common. For example, human male brains are ...
The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) is located on the lateral surface of the parietal lobe, and consists of an oblique and a horizontal portion.The IPS contains a series of functionally distinct subregions that have been intensively investigated using both single cell neurophysiology in primates [1] [2] and human functional neuroimaging.
