  2. Frontal gyri - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_gyri

    The inferior frontal gyrus includes Broca's area. On the inferior or ventral surface of the frontal lobe including the orbitofrontal cortex is the orbital gyrus. This is also called the orbital gyri because it is separated into four sections or gyri: anterior, posterior, lateral, and medial. The most medial gyrus of the frontal lobes on the ...

  3. Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsolateral_prefrontal_cortex

    The DLPFC is not an anatomical structure, but rather a functional one. It lies in the middle frontal gyrus of humans (i.e., lateral part of Brodmann's area (BA) 9 and 46 [2]). In macaque monkeys, it is around the principal sulcus (i.e., in Brodmann's area 46 [3] [4] [5]).

  4. Medial frontal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_frontal_gyrus

    The medial and superior frontal gyri are two of the frontal gyri of the frontal lobe. The portion on the lateral surface of the hemisphere is usually more or less completely subdivided into an upper and a lower part by an antero-posterior sulcus, the paramedial sulcus, which, however, is frequently interrupted by bridging gyri .

  5. Inferior frontal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_frontal_gyrus

    Orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus (pars orbitalis) (cortex inferior and anterior to the horizontal ramus of the lateral sulcus) Cytoarchitecturally the opercular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 44 (BA44). The triangular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 45 (BA45), and the orbital part ...

  6. Premotor cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premotor_cortex

    The premotor cortex occupies the part of Brodmann area 6 that lies on the lateral surface of the cerebral hemisphere. The medial extension of area 6, onto the midline surface of the hemisphere, is the site of the supplementary motor area, or SMA.

  7. Straight gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_gyrus

    The portion of the inferior frontal lobe immediately adjacent to the longitudinal fissure (and medial to the medial orbital gyrus and olfactory tract) is named the straight gyrus,(or gyrus rectus) and is continuous with the superior frontal gyrus on the medial surface.

  8. Frontal eye fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_eye_fields

    The frontal eye fields (FEF) are a region located in the frontal cortex, more specifically in Brodmann area 8 or BA8, [1] of the primate brain. In humans, it can be more accurately said to lie in a region around the intersection of the middle frontal gyrus with the precentral gyrus , consisting of a frontal and parietal portion. [ 2 ]

  9. Brodmann area 44 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_44

    Brodmann area 44, or BA44, is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain.Situated just anterior to premotor cortex and on the lateral surface, inferior to BA9.. This area is also known as pars opercularis (of the inferior frontal gyrus), and it refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined frontal region of cerebral cortex.
