La corteza cerebral (o córtex cerebral) es la sustancia gris que cubre la superficie de los hemisferios cerebrales. A la corteza se la reconocen tres componentes principales: la arquicorteza (o arquicórtex), la paleocorteza (o paleocórtex) y la neocorteza (o neocórtex). La corteza cerebral se presenta como una delgada lámina de materia gris, de pocos milímetros de espesor, que cubre ambos hemisferios cerebrales. Es en la corteza cerebral donde ocurren la percepción, la imaginación, el pensamiento, el juicio y la toma de decisiones.
