The angular gyrus is a portion of the parietal lobe of the brain.

The angular gyrus is a portion of the parietal lobe of the brain.

It is often observed following damage to the angular gyrus.

Unquestionably, one of these convergence zones is the left inferior parietal lobule, which comprises the angular gyrus and the supramarginal gyrus.

It turned out to be the right angular gyrus between the temporal and parietal regions.

In contrast, the musical exchange deactivated brain structures involved in semantic processing, called the angular gyrus and supramarginal gyrus.

As in the angular gyrus, a lesion in the middle portion of the inferior temporal gyrus can cause deficits in reading and in identifying objects.

The angular gyrus would thus be directly involved when you assign a name to an object or when you read its name.

Degeneration of the angular gyrus in the temporal lobe and inferior parietal lobe can lead to lvPPA.

This disorder is often associated with brain lesions in the dominant (usually left) hemisphere including the angular and supramarginal gyri (Brodmann area 39 and 40 respectively) near the temporal and parietal lobe junction.

Gerstmann syndrome: dyscalculia is one of a constellation of symptoms acquired after damage to the angular gyrus.

The angular gyrus, which regulates perception and language use, also experiences greater interconnectivity.

In fact, the visual information from the printed word seems to be transmitted from the visual cortex to Broca’s area without having to pass through the angular gyrus.

The neurons of the angular gyrus are also especially well placed to categorize, conceptualize, and draw connections among various characteristics of an object.

The angular gyrus is also more active when you are retrieving the meaning of a word or holding it in memory for a short time.
