Abstract
Abstract The cerebral cortex is involved in various simple and complex activities. It consists of layers of neuronal cell bodies (ie, gray matter) that are organized into gyri (convolutions).The cortex can be divided into functional components in several ways. Various schemes are based on function, cytoarchitecture, topography, or Brodmann areas. The terminology can be confusing because the same area of cortex could be designated by several names. For instance, Brodmann area 17 is also called the primary visual cortex, the striate cortex, and the calcarine cortex. Brodmann designated 52 regions of the cerebral cortex according to cytoarchitecture.
