preoccipital notch

^ http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0002698


Small indentation on the inferior surface of the cerebral cortex at the border of the occiptal and parietal lobes. It is considered as a landmark because the occipital lobe is located just behind the line that connects that notch with the parietoccipital sulcus (adapted from Wikipedia). [ BIRNLEX:1436 ]

Synonyms: incisura preoccipitalis, occipital notch, incisura parieto-occipitalis, preoccipital incisura, preoccipital incisure, incisura praeoccipitalis
