  2. Fusiform gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusiform_gyrus

    The fusiform gyrus, also known as the lateral occipitotemporal gyrus, [1] [2] is part of the temporal lobe and occipital lobe in Brodmann area 37. [3] The fusiform gyrus is located between the lingual gyrus and parahippocampal gyrus above, and the inferior temporal gyrus below. [4]

  3. 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 ...

  4. Brodmann area 37 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_37

    This area is also known as occipitotemporal area 37 (H). It is a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined temporal region of cerebral cortex . It is located primarily in the caudal portions of the fusiform gyrus and inferior temporal gyrus on the mediobasal and lateral surfaces at the caudal extreme of the temporal lobe .

  5. Occipital lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_lobe

    At the front edge of the occipital lobe are several occipital gyri, which are separated by lateral occipital sulcus. The occipital aspects along the inside face of each hemisphere are divided by the calcarine sulcus. Above the medial, Y-shaped sulcus lies the cuneus, and the area below the sulcus is the lingual gyrus.

  6. Lateral occipital sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_occipital_sulcus

    In the occipital lobe, the lateral occipital sulcus, where present, divides the lateral, or middle occipital gyrus into a superior and an inferior part, which are then continuous in front with the parietal and temporal lobes.

  7. Lingual gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingual_gyrus

    The lingual gyrus, also known as the medial occipitotemporal gyrus, [1] is a brain structure that is linked to processing vision, especially related to letters. It is thought to also play a role in analysis of logical conditions (i.e., logical order of events) and encoding visual memories.

  8. Inferior temporal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_temporal_gyrus

    The inferior temporal gyrus is one of three gyri of the temporal lobe and is located below the middle temporal gyrus, connected behind with the inferior occipital gyrus; it also extends around the infero-lateral border on to the inferior surface of the temporal lobe, where it is limited by the inferior sulcus.

  9. Brodmann area 21 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_21

    BA21 is a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined temporal region of the cerebral cortex. BA21 is superior to BA20 and inferior to BA40 and BA41.It is bounded rostrally by the temporopolar area 38 (H), ventrally by the inferior temporal area 20, caudally by the occipitotemporal area 37 (H), and dorsally by the superior temporal area 22 (Brodmann-1909).
