  2. Brodmann area 40 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_40

    Brodmann area 40 (BA40) is part of the parietal cortex in the human brain.The inferior part of BA40 is in the area of the supramarginal gyrus, which lies at the posterior end of the lateral fissure, in the inferior lateral part of the parietal lobe.

  3. Paracentral lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_lobule

    In neuroanatomy, the paracentral lobule is on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere and is the continuation of the precentral and postcentral gyri.The paracentral lobule controls motor and sensory innervations of the contralateral lower extremity.

  4. Sulcus (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulcus_(neuroanatomy)

    The sulci and fissures are shallow and deep grooves respectively in the cortex, that organise the brain into its regions. [2] A sulcus is a shallow groove that surrounds a gyrus or part of a gyrus. A fissure is a deeper furrow that divides the brain into lobes, and also into the two hemispheres as the longitudinal fissure. [4]

  5. Calcarine sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcarine_sulcus

    The calcarine sulcus (or calcarine fissure) is an anatomical landmark located at the caudal end of the medial surface of the brain of humans and other primates. Its name comes from the Latin "calcar" meaning "spur".

  6. Cingulate sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_sulcus

    The cingulate sulcus is a sulcus (brain fold) on the cingulate cortex in the medial wall of the cerebral cortex.The frontal and parietal lobes are separated from the cingulate gyrus by the cingulate sulcus.

    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 ...

  9. Falx cerebri - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falx_cerebri

    The falx cerebri is a strong, crescent-shaped sheet of dura mater lying in the sagittal plane between the two cerebral hemispheres. [3] It is one of four dural partitions of the brain along with the falx cerebelli, tentorium cerebelli, and diaphragma sellae; it is formed through invagination of the dura mater into the longitudinal fissure between the cerebral hemispheres.
