Preferred Label : Brodmann (1909) area 32;
Uberon definition : The Brodmann area 32, also known in the human brain as the dorsal anterior cingulate
area 32, refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined cingulate region
of cerebral cortex. In the human it forms an outer arc around the anterior cingulate
gyrus. The cingulate sulcus defines approximately its inner boundary and the superior
rostral sulcus (H) its ventral boundary; rostrally it extends almost to the margin
of the frontal lobe. Cytoarchitecturally it is bounded internally by the ventral anterior
cingulate area 24, externally by medial margins of the agranular frontal area 6, intermediate
frontal area 8, granular frontal area 9, frontopolar area 10, and prefrontal area
11-1909. (Brodmann19-09). Dorsal region of anterior cingulate gyrus is associated
with rational thought processes, most notably active during the Stroop task.;
