Orbitofrontal cortex: anatomy and connections

The Orbitofrontal Cortex, 2019
The anatomical connections of the orbitofrontal cortex are described. The orbitofrontal cortex receives from the end of every sensory hierarchy information about what taste, smell, touch, visual stimulus including objects and faces, and what auditory stimuli including vocalization, is present.

Cerebral Cortex Anatomy

Approximately 10-20% of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis cases have a familial component, suggesting a strong genetic influence. While most cases are sporadic, familial cases provide critical insights into genetic predispositions and mechanisms. TERT and TERC mutations which encode components of telomerase, are among the most common in familial idiopathic

Epilepsy and the Cortex Anatomy

1991
Numerous morphological studies of epileptic brains have been made over the past century. The earliest descriptions were made of brain tissue obtained from humans with epilepsy, whereas the more recent studies have concentrated on the analysis of brain tissue from various animal models in an attempt to gain a better understanding of the basic mechanisms

Gustatory cortex of primates: anatomy and physiology

Neuroscience Research, 1994
Clinical and physiological studies of patients with ageusia or gustatory hallucination suggest that the primary gustatory area (area G) lies at the anterior insula or at the base of the central sulcus. However, physiological and anatomical studies in subhuman primates, e.g.

Adrenal Cortex Anatomy and Physiology

Abstract The adrenal gland is a structure that sits on the superior pole of the kidneys bilaterally. It is composed of two distinct glands with unique anatomy and physiology. This chapter will focus on the outer layer of the adrenal gland, the adrenal cortex.

Evolutionary Anatomy of the Primate Cerebral Cortex

American Journal of Human Biology, 2001
Studies of brain evolution have moved rapidly in recent years, building on the pioneering research of Harry J. Jerison. This book provides reviews of primate (including human) brain evolution. The book is divided into two sections, the first gives new perspectives on the developmental, physiological, dietary and behavioural correlates of brain ...

Functional Anatomy of Human Somatosensory Cortex

1993
We studied 6 epilepsy patients who were evaluated for epilepsy surgery. All patients had partial seizures defined by EEG recordings and behavior during seizures. The seizures were medically intractable and severely interfering with the patients’ quality of lives.

Anatomy of the auditory cortex.

Revue neurologique, 1996
Cortical auditory areas located in the superior temporal region (STR) in monkey and human. The primary auditory area (AI) occupies the cortex of the supratemporal plane (STP) and is surrounded by auditory association areas in circular sulcus and superior temporal gyrus (STG).

The anatomy, physiology and functions of the perirhinal cortex

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1996
The perirhinal cortex is a polymodal association area that contributes importantly to normal recognition memory. A convergence of recent findings from lesion and electrophysiological studies has provided new evidence that this area participates in an even broader range of memory functions than previously thought, including associative memory and ...
