The functional role of the
parietofrontal mirror circuit: interpretations and misinterpretations.
Studies using fMRI techniques have reported activation of the supplementary motor area, premotor cortex, primary motor cortex,
parietofrontal circuitry, temporal gyrus, and ipsilateral anterior lobe of the cerebellum [24-26].
Parietofrontal regions of the scalp were also involved.
Among the 14 topics are timing excitation and inhibition in the cortical network, gap junctions and emergent rhythms, the feed-forward chain as a filter-amplifier motif, encoding and decoding target parameters in the primate
parietofrontal system, stochastic synchrony in the olfactory bulb, and the large-scale computational modeling of the primary visual cortex.
A unique depression was consistently found at the cornual end of the temporal line of the skull medial to the middle portion of the caudal boundary of the orbit and dorsal to the lateral portion of the
parietofrontal suture.
A computed tomography (CT) scan of the head revealed a massive enhancing lesion in the left
parietofrontal lobe and many homogeneous areas of patchy enhancement with contrast and mass effect, usually characteristic of a malignant glioma.
