occipit lobe occipital lobe tancred 2005 the occipital lobe is involved primarily in the processing and interpretaion of visual information. structures: calcarine sulcus cuneus lingual gyrus parahippocampal gyrus parieto-occipital sulcus primary visual area information: the occipital lobe occupies the posterior part of the cerebral hemisphere. boundaries: on the lateral surface it is located posterior to an imaginary line extending from the parieto-occipital sulcus to the pre-occipital notch. on the medial surface it is bounded posterior to the parieto-occipital fissure and by an imaginary line extending from the splenium of the corpus callosum to the pre-occipital notch. sulci and gyri: the medial surface of the occipital lobe is divided into two parts by the calcarine sulcus, a deep groove which extends posteriorly from the parieto-occipital fissure to the posterior pole. the cuneus is the wedge-shaped area which lies between the parieto-occipital fissure and the calcarine sulcus. the inferior bank of the calcarine sulcus is formed by the lingual gyrus, a posterior extension of the parahippocampal gyrus of the temporal lobe. the lateral surface of the occipital lobe is formed by some inconstantly-shaped gyri, which are collectively referred to as the lateral occipital gyri. functional areas: the occipital lobe contains the primary visual area of the cortex, which is located around the calcarine sulcus. only a thin strip of the primary visual cortex is visible on the medial surface of the brain (on either side of the calacarine sulcus) because most of it is buried within the depths of the sulcus. Tancr 2005 The occipit lobe is involv primarili in the process and interpretaion of visual information. Structures: Calcarin Sulcus Cuneus Lingual Gyrus Parahippocamp Gyrus Parieto-occipit Sulcus Primari Visual Area Information: The occipit lobe occupi the posterior part of the cerebr hemisphere. Boundaries: On the later surfac it is locat posterior to an imaginari line extend from the parieto-occipit sulcus to the pre-occipit notch. On the medial surfac it is bound posterior to the parieto-occipit fissur and by an imaginari line extend from the splenium of the corpus callosum to the pre-occipit notch. Sulci and Gyri: The medial surfac of the occipit lobe is divid into two part by the calcarin sulcus, a deep groov which extend posterior from the parieto-occipit fissur to the posterior pole. The cuneus is the wedge-shap area which lie between the parieto-occipit fissur and the calcarin sulcus. The inferior bank of the calcarin sulcus is form by the lingual gyrus, a posterior extens of the parahippocamp gyrus of the tempor lobe. The later surfac of the occipit lobe is form by some inconstantly-shap gyri, which are collect refer to as the later occipit gyri. Function Areas: The occipit lobe contain the primari visual area of the cortex, which is locat around the calcarin sulcus. Onli a thin strip of the primari visual cortex is visibl on the medial surfac of the brain (on either side of the calacarin sulcus) becaus most of it is buri within the depth of the sulcus. |
