The superior parietal lobule is part of the parietal lobe and is a subdivision of the posterior parietal cortex. It is demarcated by two sulci, the postcentral sulcus and the intraparietal sulcus, which subdivide the surface of the parietal lobe into the postcentral gyrus, the superior parietal lobule, and the inferior parietal lobule.
