	Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body. Page 823
		The lateral surface is limited in front by the lateral part of the parietoöccipital fissure, and by a line carried from the end of this fissure to the preoccipital notch; it is traversed by the transverse occipital and the lateral occipital sulci.
		The transverse occipital sulcus is continuous with the posterior end of the occipital ramus of the intraparietal sulcus, and runs across the upper part of the lobe, a short distance behind the parietoöccipital fissure.
		The lateral occipital sulcus extends from behind forward, and divides the lateral surface of the occipital lobe into a superior and an inferior gyrus, which are continuous in front with the parietal and temporal lobes.

	Sulcus (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In neuroanatomy, a sulcus (pl. sulci) is a depression or fissure in the surface of the brain.
		Sulcus temporalis superior (ts) - this sulcus runs parallel to the lateral fissure and extends to the temporal pole and often superficially merges with it.
		parietal lobe: postcentral sulcus, postcentral gyrus (1, 2, 3, 43), superior parietal lobule (5), inferior parietal lobule (39-angular gyrus, 40), precuneus (7), intraparietal sulcus

	Lateral sulcus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The lateral sulcus (also called Sylvian fissure or lateral fissure) is one of the most prominent structures of the human brain.
		In the left hemisphere the lateral sulcus is between Wernicke's area and Broca's area.
		As the above areas of the brain are involved in language function the lateral sulcus appears also involved in language.

		The parietal lobe in the external surface is limited anteriorly by the central sulcus, posteriorly by an imaginary line which runs from the parieto-occipital sulcus to the preoccipital notch, superiorly by the superior margin and inferiorly by the lateral sulcus.
		Anterior to the paracentral sulcus is the medial portion of the superior frontal gyrus.
		The occipitotemporal sulcus and the inferior temporal sulcus delimit the inferior temporal gyrus.

		The frontal (anterior) horn of the lateral ventricle is bounded inferiorly by the rostrum, anteriorly by the genu, and superiorly by the body, of the corpus callosum.
		The vessels of the plexus are derived from the internal carotid (anterior choroidal artery) and the posterior cerebral (posterior choroidal) arteries.
		The vessels to the plexus are derived from cerebellar branches of the vertebral and basilar arteries.

		Sulci and Gyri of The Lateral Temporal Lobe
		The sulci on the lateral surface of the temporal lobe are the lateral cerebral fossa and the lateral sulcus.
		The margins of this fossa continue to grow, forming the overlapping folds of the "operculum," and the sulcus itself elongates in both directions to separate the temporal lobe from the frontal and the parietal lobes in front and above it.

		The IFC is defined as cortex anterior to the precentral sulcus, inferior to the inferior frontal sulcus and superior and posterior to the lateral orbital sulcus (Figure 1).
		Normally the lateral orbital sulcus is continuous with the inferior frontal sulcus and serves as the anterior boundary in more inferior slices (Figure 1 and Figure 6).
		Since the inferior frontal sulcus is not clearly defined in the axial slices of this region, the cortical object model must be used to distinguish this geometric line (Figure 8 and Figure 9).

	Brain - MSN Encarta
		The central sulcus, or Rolandic fissure, runs from the middle of the top of each hemisphere downward, forward, and toward another major sulcus, the lateral (“side”), or Sylvian, sulcus.
		The parietal lobe consists of the cortex behind the central sulcus to a sulcus near the back of the cerebrum known as the parieto-occipital sulcus.
		The parieto-occipital sulcus, in turn, forms the front border of the occipital lobe, which is the rearmost part of the cerebrum.

		The frontal lobe sits in the anterior cranial fossae and is bounded by the central sulcus posteriorly and the lateral sulcus inferiorly.
		Its anterior border is the central sulcus and its posterior border is the parieto-occipital fissure.

		Determine the boundary of the occipital lobe on the lateral surface – a line drawn from the tip of the parieto-occipital sulcus, past the end of the lateral sulcus to the notch (approximately 5 cm from the occipital pole) caused by the cerebellum.
		Lateral to this is the long (often interrupted) occipitotemporal gyrus.
		The occipital lobe cortex is involved in visual function, the 'primary' areas are in the walls of the calcarine sulcus.

		The most medial and dorsal section of the superior frontal sulcus is the medial boundary of the DLFC while the frontomarginal sulcus is the lateral boundary (Figure 1).
		As you move posteriorly, the superior limit of the lateral orbital sulcus becomes the lateral boundary (Figure 2).
		When the lateral orbital sulcus is no longer visible and the orbital gyrus and precentral gyrus appear, the superior segment of the circular insular sulcus then becomes the medial and inferior boundary while the inferior precentral sulcus becomes the lateral and inferior boundary (Figure 3).

		The lateral sulcus (or fissure) is an important landmark.
		Parietooccipital sulcus (or fissure) ends in a small notch, and is the border between the parietal lobe and the occipital lobe and can be seen only from the medial view and not from the lateral view.
		The median and lateral geniculate bodies are located at the base of the thalamus and these are the relay station for the optic tract which ends up in one of these bodies.

		It begins inferiorly on the inferior surface of the cerebral hemispheres as a deep furrow and extends posteriorly, seperating the frontal and temporal lobes.posteriorly, the lateral sulcus seperates partly the parietal and frontal lobes.
		The central sulcus is an important landmark of the cerebral cortex because the motor cortex (pre-central gyrus) lies anterior to it and the general sensory cortex (post-central gyrus) lies posterior to it.
		Their lateral and superior surfaces extend posterior to the coronal sulcus.the basal surfaces of the frontal lobes rest on the orbital parts of the frontal bone in the anterior cranial fossa.

	The Brain
		The central sulcus separates the frontal and parietal lobes, and the deeper lateral sulcus forms the boundary between the temporal lobe and the frontal and parietal lobes.
		The frontal lobe, largest of all the lobes of the brain, lies rostral to the central sulcus (that is, toward the nose from the sulcus).
		The visual field is represented near the calcarine sulcus in a retinotopic fashion—that is, with upper quadrants of the visual field laid out along the inferior bank of the sulcus and lower quadrants of the visual field represented on the upper bank.

	Deep Lateral Femoral Notch Sign
		The increased depth of the lateral femoral sulcus in patients with an ACL tear is due to impacted fracture, similar to a Hill-Sachs lesion of the humerus.
		This impaction occurs when the tibia becomes displaced anteriorly and the lateral femoral sulcus pushes against the posterior rim of the tibial plateau, causing an indentation in the femoral condyle.
		Abnormally increased depth is known as the deep lateral femoral notch (sulcus).

	The somatosensory areas of the lateral sulcus
		The somatotopic organization of the second somatosensory area (SII) and the parietal ventral area (PV) on the upper bank and parietal operculum of the lateral sulcus of the macaque monkey, as described by Krubitzer et al., [1995].
		The lateralmost portion of the sulcus is adjacent to anterior parietal fields 3b, 1, and 2; and the medialmost portion is adjacent to the insula.
		The structure of the somatosensory areas of the lateral sulcus suggest at least two separate mappings of the body surface in a number of species, including man. The functional significance of these two different fields is more contentious, partly due to the reasonably recent nature of their discovery.

	The Human Brain
		The stem of the lateral sulcus is a deep transverse furrow, from which the middle cerebral vessels have been removed.
		Above the temporal pole of the hemisphere, the posterior ramus of the lateral sulcus is a long cleft that runs backwards with an upwards inclination, and it enters the inferior parietal lobule where it may terminate in a T-shaped manner.
		The supramarginal and angular gyri are located respectively around the terminal parts of the posterior branch of the lateral sulcus and the superior temporal sulcus.
