Cortical areas: Limbic lobe. Orbitofrontal cortex: a region in the frontal lobe involved in the process of decision-making. Piriform cortex: part of the olfactory system. Entorhinal cortex: related to memory and associative components. Hippocampus and associated structures: play a central role in the consolidation of new memories.
BrainMaps uses multiresolution image formats for representing massive brain images, and a dHTML/Javascript front-end user interface for image navigation, both similar to the way that Google Maps works for geospatial data. BrainMaps is one of the most massive online neuroscience databases and image repositories and features the highest ...
Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy. [ edit on Wikidata] A Brodmann area is a region of the cerebral cortex, in the human or other [citation needed] 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.
A brain atlas is composed of serial sections along different anatomical planes of the healthy or diseased developing or adult animal or human brain where each relevant brain structure is assigned a number of coordinates to define its outline or volume. Brain atlases are contiguous, comprehensive results of visual brain mapping and may include ...
MeSH. D001931. Brain mapping is a set of neuroscience techniques predicated on the mapping of (biological) quantities or properties onto spatial representations of the (human or non-human) brain resulting in maps. According to the definition established in 2013 by Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics (SBMT), brain mapping is specifically ...
Below are the top 10 leading underlying causes of death in the U.S., as compiled by the CDC using data from the National Vital Statistics System. Heart disease. Cancer. Unintentional injury ...
The brain is the central organ of the human nervous system, and with the spinal cord makes up the central nervous system. The brain consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. It controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sense organs, and making ...
Cortical maps. Cortical organization, especially for the sensory systems, is often described in terms of maps. [1] For example, sensory information from the foot projects to one cortical site and the projections from the hand target in another site. As the result of this somatotopic organization of sensory inputs to the cortex, cortical ...
