Distinct responses to face motion relative to hand motion were observed in the right mid-STS, while the right posterior inferior temporal sulcus (pITS) and inferior parietal lobule (IPL) showed greater responses to hand motion relative to face motion.
During the movement observation task in the healthy subjects, we found cortical activation in the following sequence with left hemisphere dominance: (1) the occipitotemporal region near the inferior temporal sulcus (human homologue of MT/V5 in monkeys), (2) the inferior parietal cortex (IPC), and (3) the anterior part of the inferior-lateral precentral gyrus (PrCG).
Again attention to form activated area LO, whereas attention to texture activated regions in the IOG and the CoS, as well as regions in the lingual sulcus and the inferior temporal sulcus.
Functional imaging studies identified a motion-sensitive area (V5/MT+) in the vicinity of the posterior branch of the inferior temporal sulcus that has no correlate in any classical cytoarchitectonic map.
We conclude that (1) biological motion, through the process of structure-from-motion, engages areas involved in the analysis of the static human form; (2) body-selective regions in posterior fusiform gyrus and posterior inferior temporal sulcus overlap with, but are distinct from, face- and motion-selective regions; (3) the interpretation of region-of-interest findings may be substantially altered when multiple patterns of selectivity are considered..
The intact walker produced significantly greater activation in the STS, inferior temporal sulcus (ITS), and inferior parietal cortex relative to the apart walker, regardless of occlusion.
Surgery was performed by opening the inferior temporal sulcus.
In addition, reading ability in patients, but not controls, significantly predicted activation in the right inferior frontal sulcus, right hippocampus and right inferior temporal sulcus.
Middle temporal gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus, superior temporal sulcus and inferior temporal sulcus were difficult to identify, and thus had average scores of 0.87-1.26.
Activity in the right inferior temporal sulcus was greater when compared to reading age-matched controls.
The superior temporal sulcus (STS) responded strongly to human videos and human point-light displays, while the middle temporal gyrus (MTG) and the inferior temporal sulcus responded strongly to tool videos and tool point-light displays.
In addition, we found activation in regions that were not previously reported in the literature of constructional apraxia: they are the ventral premotor area and posterior part of inferior temporal sulcus..
OBJECTIVE: To describe a surgical technique for a minimally invasive transcortical transventricular amygdalohippocampectomy via the inferior temporal sulcus (ITS) using a stereotactic navigator.
In this subject, tactile motion produced a significant increase in rCBF that directly overlapped a region activated by visual motion at the posterior continuance of the inferior temporal sulcus, consistent with the known location of hMT/V5.
Putative human MT and MST were typically located on the posterior/ventral and anterior/dorsal banks of a dorsal/posterior limb of the inferior temporal sulcus, similar to their relative positions in the macaque superior temporal sulcus..
The inferior temporal sulcus (ITS) has received little attention as an entrance point for the transsulcal approach.
In humans, functional imaging studies have demonstrated a homologue of the macaque motion complex, MT+ [ suggested to contain both middle temporal (MT) and medial superior temporal (MST)], in the ascending limb of the inferior temporal sulcus.
The location of human area V5 (or MT) has been correlated with the intersection of the ascending limb of the inferior temporal sulcus (ALITS) and the lateral occipital sulcus (LO). V5 was usually (95%) buried within a sulcus, most commonly within the inferior temporal sulcus (ITS) (11%), the ascending limb of the ITS (ALITS) (53%) and the posterior continuation of the ITS (26%).
More specifically we found: (i) greater activation in the inferior temporal sulcus of both hemispheres for untitled than titled paragraphs; (ii) greater average volume of activation in response to untitled than titled paragraphs in the middle temporal sulcus of the right hemisphere and the reverse pattern in the left middle temporal sulcus.
Both discrimination tasks activated the same area in the inferior temporal sulcus of the left hemisphere.
In two subjects, the sites were around the meeting point of the ascending limb of the inferior temporal sulcus and the lateral occipital sulcus.
Activity of V5 was found at the intersection of the ascending limb of the inferior temporal sulcus and the lateral occipital sulcus during smooth pursuit eye movement.
A picture-specific activation related to semantic tasks occurred in the left posterior inferior temporal sulcus, and word-specific activations related to semantic tasks were localized to the left superior temporal sulcus, left anterior middle temporal gyrus, and left inferior frontal sulcus.
However, the tonotopic sequence of association cortex in three subjects is found largely within the superior temporal sulcus, although in the right hemisphere of one subject some sources may be closer to the inferior temporal sulcus.
It is situated ventrolaterally, just posterior to the meeting point of the ascending limb of the inferior temporal sulcus and the lateral occipital sulcus.
These include major connections with the rostral subdivision of the dorsolateral area (DLR), ventral posterior parietal cortex in the Sylvian fissure, the middle temporal area (MT), the medial superior temporal area (MST), ventral cortex just rostral to V II, and cortex in the inferior temporal sulcus.
DLC receives strong, feedforward input from V II and projects in a feedforward fashion to the rostral subdivision of DL (DLR) and caudal inferior temporal (IT) cortex, including a separate location in the inferior temporal sulcus. DLR has strong connections with cortex just rostral to dorsal V II, ventral posterior parietal cortex in the sylvian fissure, MT, the medial superior temporal area, FST, and the inferior temporal sulcus.
At 28-31 wks all the whole cingulate sulcus and postrolandic sulcus, and most of the inferior temporal sulcus and covering of insula were ready to be observed.
