  2. Brodmann area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area

    Many of the areas Brodmann defined based solely on their neuronal organization have since been correlated closely to diverse cortical functions. For example, Brodmann areas 1, 2 and 3 are the primary somatosensory cortex; area 4 is the primary motor cortex; area 17 is the primary visual cortex; and areas 41 and 42 correspond closely to primary ...

  3. Extrastriate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrastriate_cortex

    In terms of Brodmann areas, the extrastriate cortex comprises Brodmann area 18 and Brodmann area 19, while the striate cortex comprises Brodmann area 17. [3]In primates, the extrastriate cortex includes visual area V3, visual area V4, and visual area MT (sometimes called V5), [3] while V1 corresponds to the striate cortex, and V2 to the prestriate cortex.

  4. Visual cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_cortex

    The area of the visual cortex that receives the sensory input from the lateral geniculate nucleus is the primary visual cortex, also known as visual area 1 , Brodmann area 17, or the striate cortex. The extrastriate areas consist of visual areas 2, 3, 4, and 5 (also known as V2, V3, V4, and V5, or Brodmann area 18 and all Brodmann area 19 ).

  5. Cuneus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuneus

    The cuneus (Brodmann area 17) receives visual information from the same-sided superior quadrantic retina (corresponding to contralateral inferior visual field).It is most known for its involvement in basic visual processing.

  7. Hypercomplex cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercomplex_cell

    Neither simple nor complex cells were believed to display end-stopping. Likewise, end-stopping was believed to be restricted to higher order visual areas (Brodmann area 18 and Brodmann area 19), but was later discovered to also exist in the primary visual cortex (Brodmann area 17). By 1968, Geoffrey Henry and Bogdan Dreher discovered simple and ...

  8. Korbinian Brodmann - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korbinian_Brodmann

    Korbinian Brodmann (17 November 1868 – 22 August 1918) was a German neuropsychiatrist who is known for mapping the cerebral cortex and defining 52 distinct regions, known as Brodmann areas, based on their cytoarchitectonic (histological) characteristics.

  9. Paracentral lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_lobule

    It is also responsible for control of blushing, [1] defecation and urination. It includes portions of the frontal and parietal lobes : [ 2 ] The anterior portion of the paracentral lobule is part of the frontal lobe and contains a little portion of Brodmann's area 6 (SMA): this is because the paracentral sulcus (branch of the cingulate sulcus ...
