  2. Posterior interventricular sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_interventricular...

    They can be known as subsinosal interventricular groove or paraconal interventricular groove respectively. It is located on the diaphragmatic surface of the heart [1] [2] near the right margin. [2] It extends between the coronary sulcus and the (notch of [2]) apex of the heart. It contains the posterior interventricular artery and middle ...

  3. Insular cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insular_cortex

    The insular cortex is divided by the central sulcus of the insula, into two parts: the anterior insula and the posterior insula in which more than a dozen field areas have been identified. The cortical area overlying the insula toward the lateral surface of the brain is the operculum (meaning lid). The opercula are formed from parts of the ...

  4. Interoception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interoception

    The concept of interoception was introduced in 1906 by the Nobel Laureate Sir Charles S. Sherrington.He did not use the noun interoception, but did describe as interoceptive [12] those receptors that are within the viscera—what are today called "visceroceptive"—and thus excluded all other receptors and information from the body, which he grouped as either exteroceptive or proprioceptive.

  5. Crux cordis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crux_cordis

    The crux cordis or crux of the heart (from Latin "crux" meaning "cross") is the area on the lower back side of the heart where the coronary sulcus (the groove separating the atria from the ventricles) and the posterior interventricular sulcus (the groove separating the left from the right ventricle) meet.

  6. Bundle branches - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_branches

    The bundle branches were separately described by Retzer and Braeunig as early as 1904, but their physiological function remained unclear and their role in the electrical conduction system of the heart remained unknown until Sunao Tawara published his monograph on Das Reizleitungssystem des Säugetierherzens (English: The Conduction System of the Mammalian Heart) in 1906.

  7. Bundle of His - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_of_His

    The bundle of His (BH) [1]: 58 or His bundle (HB) [1]: 232 (/ h ɪ s / "hiss" [2]) is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction.As part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, it transmits the electrical impulses from the atrioventricular node (located between the atria and the ventricles) to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches via the ...

  9. Coronary sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_sulcus

    The right coronary sulcus begins anteriorly and superiorly on the sternocostal surface of the heart. Its position is marked by the location of the right coronary artery, and small cardiac vein. The right coronary sulcus separates the right atrium and its atrial appendage from the right ventricle inferiorly. The right coronary sulcus then passes ...
