A thin lamina of white matter separating the gray substance of the cortex cerebri into two layers; called also the outer band of B., to distinguish it from another white layer, sometimes visible, separating the inner gray layer into two, and called the inner band of B. In the region of the calcarine fissure, the outer band is called the band of Vicq d'Azyr.
