surface anatomy 1 - subdivisions Flashcards
What did Brodmann establish?
There is unity between an area which has a similar cytoarchitecture structure and function
These areas did not border with gyri and sulci
How many brains did Brodmann use?
1 brain or half a brain
What happened in the late 1960?
Scientist looking into language
Certain area of the brain is larger on language non-dominance side
What are the subdivisions of the cortex?
- Surface
- Lobes
- Gyri and Sulci
- Cytoarchitectonic
What does the surface of the cortex consist of?
- Medial
- Lateral (convexity)
- Inferior (Basal)
what is pneumoencephalography?
a radiographic technique (now largely superseded) for examining the brain. It involved displacing the cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricles of the brain by air or oxygen, which served as a contrast medium.
What was the consequence of pneumoencephalography?
Patients entire body would be rotated into different positions to allow air to displace CSF in different areas of ventricular system and around the brain
1970-1974

1980
MRI
What are the current concepts of lobes?
- Frontal Lobe
- Parietal Lobe
- Temporal Lobe
- Occipital Lobe
Who described the Insula and called it a lobe?
Anatomist Rile in 1809
Who described the Limbic Lobe?
Broca
Who described the Central Lobe?
G. Yasargil
What is the historical evolution of 3 centuries for the lobe?
1664 - 2 lobes - T. Willis
1822 - 5 lobes - C. Burdach
1878 - 6 lobes - P. Broca
1994 - 7 lobes - G. Yasargil
Define Lobe
Subdivision of group of structures in the brain
