  2. 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.

  3. Brodmann area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area

    A Brodmann area is a region of the cerebral cortex, in the human or other primate brain, defined by its cytoarchitecture, or histological structure and organization of cells. The concept was first introduced by the German anatomist Korbinian Brodmann in the early 20th century.

  6. Fusiform face area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusiform_face_area

    The fusiform face area (FFA) is a part of the brain located in the fusiform gyrus with a debated purpose. Some researchers believe that the FFA is evolutionary purposed for face perception.

  7. 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 ).

  8. Temporoparietal junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporoparietal_junction

    The TPJ is composed of two discrete anatomical regions, the inferior parietal lobule (IPL) and the caudal parts of the superior temporal sulcus (pSTS), and both are active in the process of distinction between mental states of different individuals; thus, it is probable that this detection is the outcome of the combination and coordination of ...

  9. Visual system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system

    The visual cortex is responsible for processing the visual image. It lies at the rear of the brain (highlighted in the image), above the cerebellum. The region that receives information directly from the LGN is called the primary visual cortex (also called V1 and striate cortex). It creates a bottom-up saliency map of the visual field to guide ...
