Parietal-occipital Fissure (red):

• Very deep
• Often Y-shaped from sagittal view
• X-shaped in horizontal and coronal views

Cuneus (pink):

• Visual areas on medial side above
• Calcarine (lower visual field)

Calcarine Sulcus (blue):

• Contains V1

Lingual gyrus (yellow):

• Visual areas on medial side below calcarine and above collateral sulcus (upper visual field)

• Divides lingual (yellow) and parahippocampal (green) gyri from fusiform gyrus (pink)

• Divides the cingulate gyrus (turquoise) from precuneus (purple) and paracentral lobule (gold)

Central Sulcus (red):

• Usually freestanding (no intersections)
• Just anterior to ascending cingulate

Precentral Sulcus (green):

• Often in two parts (superior and inferior)
• Intersects with superior frontal sulcus (T-junction)
• Marks the anterior end of precentral gyrus (motor strip, yellow)

Postcentral Sulcus (blue):

• Often in two parts (superior and anterior)
• Often intersects with intraparietal sulcus
• Marks posterior end of postcentral gyrus (somatosensory strip, purple)

• Anterior end usually intersects with inferior postcentral (some texts call inferior postcentral the ascending intraparietal sulcus)
• Posterior end usually forms a T-junction with the transverse occipital sulcus (just posterior to the parieto-occipital fissure)
• IPS divides the superior parietal lobule from the inferior parietal lobule (angular gyrus, gold, and supramarginal gyrus, lime)

Slice Views

• Central sulcus = red
• Precentral sulcus = green
• Transverse-occipital = purple
• Postcentral sulcus = blue
• Intraparietal sulcus = yellow

Superior Temporal Sulcus (red)

• Divides the superior temporal gyrus (peach) from middle temporal gyrus (lime)

Inferior Temporal Sulcus (blue)

• Not usually very continuous
• Divides middle temporal gyrus from inferior temporal gyrus (lavender)
