area a24a' (a24a')

The term area a24a' refers to a part of the anterior midcingulate cortex, which is located rostral to the posterior midcingulate cortex in the anterior cingulate gyrus of the human and the macaque. It is located on the lower margin of the gyrus in the upper bank of the callosal sulcus. It is defined on the basis of internal structure. In the human it is bounded laterally by area a33' and dorsally by area a24b'. In the macaque, which lacks area a33', it meets the corpus callosum in the depth of the callosal sulcus ( Vogt-2012 ).

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'.
