The Postcentral Gyrus is a prominent structure located in the parietal lobe of the brain, just behind the central sulcus. It plays a crucial role in processing sensory information from the body, particularly touch, temperature, and pain. This area is organized in a way that corresponds to different body parts, allowing for precise sensory perception. This gyrus is often referred to as the primary somatosensory cortex, as it is the first region to receive and interpret sensory signals. Damage to the postcentral gyrus can lead to sensory deficits, affecting a person's ability to perceive sensations from specific areas of the body, highlighting its importance in the sensory system.
