  2. Cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_cortex

    The cingulate cortex is a part of the brain situated in the medial aspect of the cerebral cortex. The cingulate cortex includes the entire cingulate gyrus, which lies immediately above the corpus callosum, and the continuation of this in the cingulate sulcus. The cingulate cortex is usually considered part of the limbic lobe.

  3. Brodmann area 9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_9

    68606. Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy. [edit on Wikidata] Brodmann area 9, or BA9, refers to a cytoarchitecturally defined portion of the frontal cortex in the brain of humans and other primates. Its cytoarchitecture is referred to as granular due to the concentration of granule cells in layer IV. [1] It contributes to the dorsolateral and ...

  4. Retrosplenial cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrosplenial_cortex

    The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) is a cortical area in the brain comprising Brodmann areas 29 and 30. [1] It is secondary association cortex, making connections with numerous other brain regions. The region's name refers to its anatomical location immediately behind the splenium of the corpus callosum in primates, although in rodents it is ...

  5. Anterior cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cingulate_cortex

    cortex cingularis anterior. NeuroNames. 161. NeuroLex ID. birnlex_936. Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy. [edit on Wikidata] In the human brain, the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) is the frontal part of the cingulate cortex that resembles a "collar" surrounding the frontal part of the corpus callosum. It consists of Brodmann areas 24, 32, and 33.

  6. Trisynaptic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisynaptic_circuit

    The cingulate cortex is separated into an anterior and a posterior region, which corresponds to areas 24, 32, 33 (anterior) and 23 (posterior) of the Brodmann areas. The anterior region receives information mainly from the mamillary bodies while the posterior cingulate receives information from the subiculum via the Papez circuit.

  7. Cerebral cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_cortex

    The cerebral cortex is the outer covering of the surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres and is folded into peaks called gyri, and grooves called sulci. In the human brain, it is between 2 and 3-4 mm. thick, [8] and makes up 40% of the brain's mass. [2] 90% of the cerebral cortex is the six-layered neocortex whilst the other 10% made up of three ...

  8. Brodmann area 32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_32

    The Brodmann area 32, also known in the human brain as the dorsal anterior cingulate area 32, refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined cingulate cortex. In the human it forms an outer arc around the anterior cingulate gyrus. The cingulate sulcus defines approximately its inner boundary and the superior rostral sulcus (H) its ...

  9. Brodmann area 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_10

    Brodmann area 10 (BA10, frontopolar prefrontal cortex, rostrolateral prefrontal cortex, or anterior prefrontal cortex) is the anterior-most portion of the prefrontal cortex in the human brain. [1] BA10 was originally defined broadly in terms of its cytoarchitectonic traits as they were observed in the brains of cadavers, but because modern ...
