Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 3 The orbital and medial prefrontal cortex (OMPFC) is a large and heterogeneous region, makes up a substantial fraction of the cortex, increases markedly in nonhuman primates, and even more in humans. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 3 Experimental data from animals can be correlated with observations on the human brain. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 3 Experimental data are scarce in humans. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 3 In human neuroimaging studies, knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of brain areas is crucial for valid interpretation of the data. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 6 Although the insula is well-known as the cortical structure in the depth of the lateral sulcus, it is better defined by the presence of claustrum deep into the cortex. 3

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 39 Connections of orbital cortex 20
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 39 The orbital frontal cortex has extensive connections with other cortical areas, especially in the temporal and insular cortices,    with the amygdala,    hippocampus and other limbic structures, and with several subcortical structures, including the medial thalamus,    ventromedial striatum,    hypothalamus    and midbrain. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 42 A chief characteristic of the orbital network is that it receives inputs from the cortical areas associated with most of the sensory systems, including olfaction, taste/visceral afferents,    somatic sensation,    and vision.    Inputs from the auditory system are still uncertain. 3
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 42 The constellation of sensory inputs suggests that the orbital network is particularly involved in assessment of food. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 43 The orbital network is connected with the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex, which also receives multiple sensory inputs, and also may be involved in sensory object assessment. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 43 The primary olfactory cortex is a paleocortical region situated immediately caudal to the OFC, and contiguous with agranular insular areas. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 45 It is uncertain whether there are direct auditory inputs to the OFC, and to the extent that auditory information enters the OFC;    it appears to be associated more with the medial rather than the orbital network. 2
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 46 In addition to the sensory inputs, the OFC as a whole is also connected with a number of limbic structures, including the amygdala,   hippocampus,    entorhinal cortex,    and parahippocampal gyrus. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 52 The OFC and the adjacent medial prefrontal cortex can be divided into two distinct but interrelated systems,    closely related to each other. 6

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 60 The orbitofrontal cortices are enriched with projections from    visual,    auditory,    somatosensory,    and polymodal cortices. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 60 While all orbitofrontal areas    receive projections from    several unimodal sensory association cortices,    there are foci within the OFC    that receive more robust projections from one modality over the others. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 60 There is considerable overlap of sensory inputs within the OFC, and many neurons respond to stimuli from several modalities. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 61 The sensory input to all orbitofrontal cortices originates from the late-processing    sensory association areas. 1

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 63 Direct and indirect sensory input    to OFC may be necessary for emotional processing. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 63 Sensory input reaches the OFC    directly by projections from sensory association cortices,    and indirectly through the amygdala,    which receives projections from the same sensory association cortices. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 64 Relationship of OFC to striatal and brain stem reward centers 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 64 The striatum (including the nucleus accumbens) responds to the OFC, but is additionally activated during the preparation,    initiation    and execution of movements, related to the expected reward. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 64 Midbrain dopamine neurons,    which respond to unpredicted primary rewards,    rapidly adapt to the information provided by reward-predicting stimuli,    and through interactions with NAc,    the amygdala,    and the OFC,    adjust the gain of reward-related responses    participating in mechanisms that select the action associated with the largest reward. 0

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 73 Orbitofrontal-striato-thalamic circuits    for emotional processing 4
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 73 The prefrontal cortex is an action-oriented region. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 73 The prefrontal cortex has a special relationship with the basal ganglia,    because it not only projects to the neostriatal parts of the basal ganglia, like the rest of the cortex,    but its thalamic interactions are modulated by signals from the internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPi). 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 73 The strong connections linking medial and orbitofrontal cortices with the ventral anterior (VA) nucleus of the thalamus suggest a role for this pathway in translating motivational and emotional processing into action. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 75 Transfer of information from OFC to lateral prefrontal cortices for decision and action 2
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 75 Orbitofrontal areas have connections with structures that have a role in the emotional significance of events,    but lack direct access    to the key systems that would allow decision and action in behavior. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 75 Orbitofrontal areas are distinguished for their connections with cortices associated with each of the sensory modalities,    but sensory projections originate from the late-processing sensory cortices. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 Distinction of medial prefrontal from orbitofrontal areas in emotional processing 4
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 The posterior OFC is considered to be part of the limbic component of the prefrontal cortex. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 The inclusion of the OFC as part of the limbic system followed the classic incorporation of caudal medial prefrontal areas in the anterior cingulate as the limbic system, as suggested by Broca and Papez. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 The prefrontal cortex has two distinct limbic components, characterized by their robust connections with other cortical and subcortical limbic structures. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 In general, the medial prefrontal cortices    lack direct connections    with sensory association areas.  0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 The most notable exception is a strong and bidirectional connection    of medial prefrontal cortices    with auditory association areas. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 79 Like the OFC,    medial prefrontal areas    are bidirectionally linked    with the amygdala. 0

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 145 What is colloquially referred to as 'taste' is actually a combination of physiologically distinct sensory experiences    of taste and smell,    or flavor. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 145 The OFC plays an important role in both taste and flavor processing,    as well as a more general role in feeding behavior    and the representation of food reward. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 153 Chemosensory integration    and the assembly of flavor. 8
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 153 What is colloquially referred to as 'taste' is the combination of a variety of physiologically distinct sensory experiences associated with the flavor of food, such as its smell,    texture    and temperature. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 153 Flavor perception    may also be influenced by the sight of food. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 153 One striking feature of many of the multimodal neurons in the primate OFC is their selective responses for appropriately paired (i.e. congruent) stimuli. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 156 The OFC appears critical in coding the relative reward value of different foods. 3
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 157 Internal state    markedly influences    the affective value    of chemosensory stimuli.    Specifically, ongoing or recent consumption of food    leads to a temporary reduction in its reward value. 1

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 266 Reward value or representations in human OFC 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 267 In order to make behavioral decisions between different types of available reward,    it is necessary to somehow encode these different rewards in the same representational space or 'currency'. 1

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 Memory Processes and the Orbital Frontal Cortex 12
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 Memory constitutes one of the most important brain functions involved in nearly all human activities of daily life. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 Limbic and paralimbic regions as well as parts of the prefrontal cortex are necessarily engaged in some of the memory functions. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 Whenever information to be encoded or retrieved has an emotional or personal connotation,    the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is a crucial interest. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 The orbitofrontal cortex is involved in autobiographical memory that is mostly emotional and personal significance. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 285 Content-based Classification of Memory 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 286 Autobiographic-episodic,    autobiographic-semantic,    and semantic long-term memory (diagram) 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 287 During memory processes, the following steps of information processing can be differentiated --    information uptake,    encoding,    consolidation,    storage    and retrieval. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 287 Memory processing involves both overlapping neural networks as well as distinct brain structures, depending on the content of information. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 287 Encoding and the Orbital Frontal Cortex 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 287 For encoding and consolidation    of episodic and semantic memory,    parts of the medial temporal lobe,    the medial diencephalon,    the basal forebrain,    and parts of the telencephal limbic structures, such as the cingulate gyrus,    are assumed to be the primary neural correlates. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 287 Current research emphasizes the role of the amygdaloid circuit, rather than the Papez circuit,    in processing the emotional connotation of memory information. 0

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 291 The ventral part of the uncinate fascicle connects the temporal pole with the orbitofrontal cortex (diagram) 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 292 One of the main characteristics of episodic memory is that the contents are stored with respect to time and place during information acquisition. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 293 Autobiographical Memory and the OFC 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 293 Autobiographical memories are inherently personal and usually have an emotional tone. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 293 Due to the complex nature of autobiographical episodic memory,    involving aspects of self,    emotion,    and general memory functions,    a number of interacting brains regions is involved. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 293 A bilateral network of brain regions is activated during autobiographical memory processing,    including the ventrolateral, dorsolateral and orbitofrontal/ventromedial prefrontal cortex,    temporal pole,    lateral and medial temporal cortex (with hippocampal formation    and parahippocampal gyrus,    temporo-parietal junction area)    and posterior cingulate/retrosplenial cortex    as well as parts of the cerebellum. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 295 Due to the close connections between emotion,    self,    and autobiographical memory,    we expect that lesions restricted to the OFC show impaired autobiographical memory,    at least with regard to detailed re-experiencing of episodes from personal past. 2
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 296 Patients with psychiatric diseases typically have functional brain abnormalities rather than structural alterations. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 298 Neuropsychologically, executive dysfunctions and memory deficits are two of the most prominent symptoms of schizophrenia. 2
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 298 Orbitofrontal changes in schizophrenia are likely linked to autobiographical memory and emotional impairments. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 299 Confabulations and orbitofrontal cortex 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 299 The OFC is involved in several memory functions and dysfunctions,    due to numerous (largely interactive) connections between limbic and paralimbic regions. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 A wide network of brain structures and fiber tracts is involved in processing memory,    depending on the aspects of time,    content    and emotionality. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 Principal structures associated with episodic and autobiographical memory (in principle for both recording and retrieval)    are parts of the limbic system,    paralimbic regions    and prefrontal areas. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 Within the frontal lobe, the OFC plays an important role in encoding and retrieving episodic and in particular autographic-episodic memories, due to their emotional and self-related nature. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 In processing autographic-episodic memories, the lateral and medial parts of the prefrontal region are most likely differentially engaged,    with the medial part being linked to positive and the lateral part to the negative memories. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 The OFC's contribution to memory is more than just an executive control or working memory function. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 300 The main role of the OFC in autobiographical memory lies in the mediation between specific memories,    memory-related emotions    and a feeling of self-awareness    or autonoetic consciousness. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 The role of lateral orbitofrontal cortex in the inhibitory control of emotion 7
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 The prefrontal cortex (PFC) governs the executive control of information processing and behavioral expression,    including the ability to selectively attend to and maintain information,    inhibit irrelevant stimuli and impulses,    and evaluate and select the appropriate response. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 The orbital frontal cortex (OFC) participates in the executive control of information processing and behavioral expression    by inhibiting neural activity associated with irrelevant, unwanted, or uncomfortable (e.g. painful) information, sensations, or actions. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 The role of the OFC in inhibition as gained increasing prominence as a result of investigations of the neural correlates of social and emotional processing. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 Most investigations of social or emotional processing reveal that the OFC is involved but the exact role is still debated. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 307 The lateral OFC, extending to the ventrolateral PFC, facilitates successful goal-oriented behavior    by inhibiting the influence of emotional information    in the context of physical sensation,    selective attention,    emotion regulation,    judgment and decision-making    and social relationships. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 308 Both volitional and automatic inhibition involve interaction of top-down inhibitory control mechanisms    originating from orbitofrontal, and other prefrontal areas,    and bottom-up    sensory and stimuli based properties    represented in primary sensory and association (e.g. inferior temporal lobe for visual objects) cortex. 1
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 308 In order to exert inhibitory influence, the OFC must receive information about sensory stimuli in the internal (e.g. physical sensations) and external environment. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 308 The OFC receives neural inputs from every sensory modality -- olfactory,    gustatory,    vision,    auditory,    and somatosensory --    and is ideally suited to monitor information from multiple sources. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 308 The OFC has direct projections to the primary and secondary sensory cortices,    and can modulate the strength of the neural signal coming from the sensory cortex,    regulating the influence of the sensory signal    on the rest of the brain, and ultimately on behavior. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 309 In addition to its reciprocal connections to primary and secondary sensory cortices,    the OFC has immense reciprocal connections with subcortical structures,   such as the amygdala, thalamus, periaqueductal gray area,    that are central in emotion processing,    and thus has the perfect architecture for modulating neural activity    associated with affective information and affectively motivated behavior. 1

Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 Technical considerations for BOLD fMRI of the orbital frontal cortex 30
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 MRI is becoming a common method due to its non-invasive nature as well as its high spatial resolution and flexibility. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 A major challenge with MRI is that it has low sensitivity or low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 It often takes several minutes to acquire an MRI image with high resolution and brain coverage. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 MRI scanners with higher field strengths, such as 3 Tesla (T), produce a larger MRI signal and improved SNR. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 A disadvantage of MRI at higher fields is an increased amount of artifacts present in the images due to the physics of MRI in the human body. 0
Zald & Rauch; Orbitofrontal Cortex 423 It is crucial to balance the tradeoffs between    the improved imaging of brain function    and the amount of artifacts present in images    as we go to a higher field strengths. 0
