Morphology of the Human Cuneus by Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Variations of the limiting and internal sulci of the human cuneus was studied using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on 209 healthy individuals and the sulcal pattern of the right hemispheres of both sexes were evaluated. The internal sulci were divided into supreme, superior, middle and inferior sulci. Sulci were classified according to their localizations, courses, and terminations. Cuneus angle was measured and found as 68.84±9.74° and no sex differences was found for this angle.
