The anatomy of the cerebral cortex of the echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2003
The cerebral cortex of the echidna is notable for its extensive folding and the positioning of major functional areas towards its caudal extremity. The gyrification of the echidna cortex is comparable in magnitude to prosimians and cortical thickness and neuronal density are similar to that seen in rodents and carnivores.

Functional Anatomy of the Cerebral Cortex by Computed Tomography

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1979
The authors describe the morphological characteristics that allow recognition of the individual computed tomography slice and determine its sequence in the series. In addition, each slices is "assembled" by defining the different cortical gyri, sulci, and cortical functional areas (based on Brodmann's maps).

The microneurosurgical anatomy of the cerebral cortex

2011
In the relatively new field of microneurosurgery, the development and use of the transcisternal, transfissural, and transsulcal approaches [54, 57, 58] have established the sulci as fundamental landmarks on the brain surface. The well-known variability in cortical function [1, 2, 13, 29, 32, 50] calls for the aid of cortical mapping techniques to ...

The anatomy of dopamine in monkey and human prefrontal cortex

1992
This chapter reviews recent evidence establishing the comparable organization of dopamine afferents and dopaminergic receptors in the human and monkey prefrontal cortex. Light microscopy using a dopamine-specific antibody reveals that the dopamine innervation in the human prefrontal cortex exhibits a distinct bilaminar distribution with dense bands of ...

Motor Cortex and the Distributed Anatomy of Finger Movements

2002
Voluntary movements are thought to be controlled via a well-ordered, spatially discrete, somatotopic map in the primary motor cortex (M1). We examined this hypothesis in monkeys trained to perform visually-cued, individuated flexion and extension movements of each digit and of the wrist.

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 and Physiology of the Cerebellar Cortex

2002
There has been a successful analysis of the neuronal interactions in the cerebellar cortex (Eccles 1973), but this does not help to any appreciable extent in the attempt to develop an understanding of the mode of operation of the cerebellum in the control of movement. At the best it can form the basis for building models.

Comparative and Evolutionary Anatomy of the Visual Cortex of the Dolphin

1990
The cetaceans (great whales, dolphins, and porpoises) are known to have descended back to the sea more than 50 million years ago and thus are considered as secondary aquatic mammals (Kesarev et al., 1977a,b; Gaskin, 1982; Gingerich et al., 1983). They completely adapted themselves to the new conditions, not only in terms of changes in body shape, but ...
