Summary
In this chapter, the insula’s microanatomy, consisting of five main gyri – three anterior short and two posterior long gyri – is described and nomenclature differences from the nineteenth to twenty-first century tabulated to ease communication. The insula’s relationship to neighboring structures is highlighted, as these relationships are important for the exploration of the insula with depth electrodes as part of the presurgical investigation. Quantitative data on the insula’s features (i.e., volumes and extents) are summarized. The chapter finishes with a brief overview of the scarce data on neurotransmitter systems in the insula and the relevance of insular anatomy for the interpretation of functional imaging results with PET.
