  • Title: The human motor corpus callosum.
    Author: Wahl M, Ziemann U.
    Journal: Rev Neurosci; 2008; 19(6):451-66. PubMed ID: 19317183.
    Abstract:
    The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest white matter fiber bundle to connect the two hemispheres of the brain. It is thought to be essential for interhemispheric transfer of information. The motor CC is that part of the CC which connects the primary motor cortices. Relatively little is known, in particular in humans, about where these fibers are located in the CC, what their function is, and how the structure of the motor CC relates to its function. This review surveys current knowledge about the human motor CC, with a focus on recent studies which assessed the motor CC by multimodal advanced neurophysiological and neuroimaging techniques.
