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.
Brodmann area 19, or BA 19, is part of the occipital lobe cortex in the human brain.Along with area 18, it comprises the extrastriate (or peristriate) cortex. In humans with normal sight, extrastriate cortex is a visual association area, with feature-extracting, shape recognition, attentional, and multimodal integrating functions.
Starburst regions can occur in different shapes, for example in Messier 94 the inner ring is a starburst region. [5] Messier 82 has a starburst core of about 600 parsec in diameter. [3] Starbursts are common during galaxy mergers such as the Antennae Galaxies. In the case of mergers, the starburst can either be local or galaxy-wide depending on ...
The prefrontal cortex has been defined based on cytoarchitectonics by the presence of a cortical granular layer IV.It is not entirely clear who first used this criterion. Many of the early cytoarchitectonic researchers restricted the use of the term prefrontal to a much smaller region of cortex including the gyrus rectus and the gyrus rostralis (Campbell, 1905; G. E. Smith, 1907; Brodmann ...
The human brain is the central organ of the nervous system, and with the spinal cord, comprises the central nervous system. It consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. The brain controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sensory nervous system ...
This wave of activity, called a cortical spreading depression, follows a particular pattern across the brain and can create a few different patterns of light in your vision. For example, the Mayo ...
The superior temporal gyrus contains several important structures of the brain, including: Brodmann areas 41 and 42, marking the location of the auditory cortex, the cortical region responsible for the sensation of sound; Wernicke's area, Brodmann area 22, an important region for the processing of speech so that it can be understood as language.
