area 10m - BrainInfo

area 10m (10m)

The term area 10m refers to one of three subdivisions of area 10 in the human and macaque. Defined on the basis of multiple stains, in human it occupies caudal parts of the superior rostral gyrus and the inferior rostral gyrus on the medial surface of the frontal lobe. It is bounded rostrally by area 10r, caudally by area 32pl, dorsally by area 24, and ventrally by area 14. The other subdivisions of area 10 in the human are area 10p and area 10r. Its equivalent in the macaque is located ventral to area 32o, rostral to area 25 and dorsal to area 14. In the macaque it has also been referred to as infralimbic area or area IL ( Preuss-1991; Ongur-2003 ).

Models Where It Appears

orbitomedial prefrontal cortex hierarchy

refers to the organization of substructures of the orbitomedial prefrontal cortex of the human as described in Ongur-2003. The organization is the same in the macaque, except for a few minor differences in internal structure and names based on topology ( Carmichael-1994 ).

Topographic Model of Human Cerebral Cortex

The topographic model of human cerebral cortex is a closed partitive hierarchical model of cerebral cortical structure in the human. The cerebral cortex is segmented on the basis of internal structure, connectivity, and/or functions of cortical areas. It is designed to update the comprehensive early twentieth century parcellations of Brodmann and of von Economo and Koskinas and their successors. A work in progress, it integrates the most authoritative, comprehensive, and recent parcellations and nomenclatures from peer-reviewed publications and neuroanatomical texts. For an equivalent model in the rodent, Search BrainInfo for ' Functional CNS Model - Rat '. This segmentation of the human cerebral cortex, based on a combination of internal structure, connectivity, and function, complements the classical segmentation of the cerebral cortex into lobes, lobules, and gyri based on sulcal patterns: For the classical segmentation, see ' cerebral cortex ' and click 'Locus in Brain Hierarchy'.
