A,B: Drawings of coronal sections from Figure 2 showing selected architectonic boundaries

(gray wedges) and layer 4 contours (dashed lines). for area LIPv, where each line segment represents one transitional wedge (e.g., one pair of line segments originates from B).

To right:

Fig. 11. Flat map representations of the distribution of architectonic subdivisions in and near the IPS in four hemispheres. A: Case 95DR (right hemisphere); coronal plane of section (from Fig. 4B). B: Case 95DL (left hemisphere of the case in A, oriented as a right hemisphere); coronal. C: Case 94CR; coronal. D: Case 93IR; coronalsagittal plane of section. The combined depth of both banks of the IPS in A is roughly 20 mm (measured from 3-D reconstruction), which is about 25% greater than the combined depth of the IPS in C (16 mm), whereas the lengths of the IPS in both cases were about the same (measured from the juncture with the fundus of the POS to the tip of the IPS), resulting in a narrower wedge-shaped IPS in C. In C, the white outline in 7a/7b indicates compromised tissue. Scale bars = 1 map-cm.
