Abstract
Morphological relation of the lingual sulcus to the Posterior parahippocampal region in the human brain
Highlights
The ventromedial temporo-occipital region of the human brain includes the caudal part of the parahippocampal gyrus that plays a critical role in memory formation [1] and the immediately adjoining ventral occipital region subserving secondary visual processing [2]
The morphology of this region in the human brain is not well understood, it is crucial for interpreting the precise location of cortical activation peaks resulting from functional neuroimaging studies of memory and visual processing
The present research examined the morphological patterns of the lingual sulcus (LiS) and its relation to the caudal parahippocampal region that includes the Posterior extension of the collateral sulcus (CSp) and the isthmus, the narrow passage that links the parahippocampal gyrus to the Posterior cingulate gyrus [3]
