[The sulci and gyri localization of the brain superolateral surface in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging].
The knowledge of the superolateral surface brain anatomy is fundamental to localize and to approach the cerebral lesions. A literature review of the signs and landmarks for the identification of its sulci and gyri in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging had been done. The combined use of these several signs makes possible the sulci and gyri identification and its cerebral lesions localization in almost all cases.
