In neuroanatomy, the paracentral lobule is on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere and is the continuation of the precentral and postcentral gyri.
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 ...
The angular gyrus is a region of the brain lying mainly in the posteroinferior region of the parietal lobe, occupying the posterior part of the inferior parietal lobule. [1] It represents the Brodmann area 39. [1] Its significance is in transferring visual information to Wernicke's area, in order to make meaning out of visually perceived words. [2]
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 ...
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
Frank's sign is a diagonal crease in the ear lobe extending from the tragus across the lobule to the rear edge of the auricle. [1] The sign is named after Sanders T. Frank. [1] It has been hypothesised that Frank's sign is indicative of cardiovascular disease [2] [3] and/or diabetes. [4]
Specifically, it is composed of the inferior parietal lobule and the caudal parts of the superior temporal sulcus. [1] There are two halves to the temporoparietal junction, with each component in their respective hemispheres of the brain. Each half of the TPJ pertains to various aspects of cognitive function.
The shape of the central sulcus has been linked to the degree of disability in individuals who have a small subcortical ischemic stroke as a result of severe cerebral small vessel disease. [15] However, the severity of the disability has been found to not be fully dependent upon the morphology of the central sulcus. [15]
