Document Summary

Rolandic or central anterior or posterior. Are they equal: largest of lobes, least amount of info about this lobe, most susceptible lobe for injury in a concussion. Can cause very subtle problems called subexecutive or diexecutive syndrome. Cytoarchitectonic (brodmann"s areas: most well known. Inferior and superior division: depicts communication between the brain and the spinal cord, more on axons as opposed to cells. Functional: reflects functions of the brain areas. Amalgamation between the cytoarchitectonic map and functional map. Numerical representation of each of the subareas within the lobes: link the subareas to functions. Green area (area 38) is part of the limbic system. Arise from 6 layers in the cerebral cortex: precentral sulcus areas. 4 primary motor ( 10 field) 6 & 8 premotor (20 field) 9, 10, 11 prefrontal (30 field) Post central sulcus: 1,2,3 somatosensory (10 field, 5,7 association (30 field) Below central sulcus (below sylvian fissure: 41 10 auditory area (10 field, 22 wernicke"s area (20 field)
