The calcarine sulcus (or calcarine fissure) is an anatomical landmark located at the caudal end of the medial surface of the brain of humans and other primates. Its name comes from the Latin "calcar" meaning "spur". It is very deep, and known as a complete sulcus.

2024年5月16日 · The calcarine sulcus, also known as the calcarine fissure, is a deep sulcus of the brain, located on the medial surface of the occipital lobe. The term "calcarine" comes from the Latin word "calcar", which means spur.

2024年5月9日 · The calcarine fissure, or calcarine sulcus, is located on the medial surface of the occipital lobe and divides the primary visual cortex (a.k.a. calcarine cortex) into two halves.

The calcarine sulcus is a very important landmark on the medial aspect of the occipital lobe, extending posteriorly from the parieto-occipital sulcus to the occipital pole. This sulcus provides a landmark for defining the location of the primary visual cortex.

The calcarine sulcus is an important groove located in the occipital cortex. It separates the cuneus (or cuneate gyrus) above it from the gyrus below it, known as the lingula (or lingual gyrus). You can see it on the inner surface of the occipital cortex.

The Calcarine Sulcus (CalcS) is a deep antero-posterior sulcus which starts in the temporal lobe, under the splenium of the corpus callosum, and continues in the direction of the occipital pole.

2025年1月4日 · The calcarine sulcus is a sulcus of the median occipital lobe. The calcarine sulcus begins above the splenium of the corpus callosum and separates caudally the isthmus of the cingulate gyrus from the parahippocampal gyrus.

2017年11月25日 · The calcarine sulcus is an important anatomical landmark in the brain (image source) FINDING THE CALCARINE SULCUS ON SAGITTAl CROSS SECTIONS: Y-SIGN. Often times on sagittal sections near the midline of the brain, the parieto-occipital sulcus will join with the calcarine sulcus to form what looks like a “Y”. The image below depicts shows ...

In the medial occipital region, the calcarine sulcus was the longest and most constant sulcus. The dipole moments around the calcarine sulcus (CaS) and posterior fusiform gyrus (pFuG) increased at latencies around 70-350 ms.

2023年7月24日 · The medial surface of the occipital lobe has a characteristic calcarine sulcus (calcarine fissure). It extends from the parieto-occipital sulcus to the occipital pole. The upper and lower banks of calcarine sulcus house the primary visual cortex.
