The central sulcus is a prominent landmark of the brain, separating the parietal lobe from the frontal lobe and the primary motor cortex from the primary somatosensory cortex.

Immediately posterior to the central sulcus, and the most anterior part of the parietal lobe, is the postcentral gyrus ( Brodmann area 3 ), the primary somatosensory cortical area.

Leuret coined the name " fissure of Rolando " after Italian anatomist Luigi Rolando ( 1773 1831 ) for what is now known as the central sulcus of the brain.

Males have larger left hemispheric asymmetries than females in various brain areas, including the superior temporal gyrus, Heschl gyrus, deeper central sulcus, overall temporal and parietal and inferior parietal lobule, thalamus and posterior cingulate.
15.
Rightward asymmetry can be seen in the right central sulcus ( potentially suggesting increased connectivity between motor and somatosensory cortices in the left side of the brain ), lateral ventricle, entorhinal cortex, amygdala and temporo-parieto-occipital area.

More recent studies using CSM have shown that the motor cortex is more complex than the arrangement pictured traditional homunculus, and that motor responses occur in the frontal lobe further away from the narrow strip next to the central sulcus.

The brain cortical regions are related to the auditory, visual, olfactory, and somatosensory ( touch, proprioception ) sensations, which are located lateral to the lateral fissure and posterior to the central sulcus, that is, more toward the back of the brain.

While the boundary between the lobes, the central sulcus, is easy to locate on the lateral surface of the cerebral hemispheres, this boundary is often discerned in a cytoarchetectonic manner in cases where the central sulcus is not visible on the medial surface.

The Wadsworth Center gets the best results so far, he said, by positioning a pair of electrodes over the left hemisphere and another pair over the right hemisphere, with both pairs near the top of the head over the central sulcus of the brain.
