    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_22

    Brodmann area 22 is a Brodmann's area that is cytoarchitecturally located in the posterior superior temporal gyrus of the brain. [1] In the left cerebral hemisphere, it is one portion of Wernicke's area. [1] The left hemisphere BA22 helps with generation and understanding of individual words.

  5. Superior temporal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_temporal_gyrus

    Brodmann areas 41 and 42, marking the location of the auditory cortex, the cortical region responsible for the sensation of sound; Wernicke's area, Brodmann area 22, an important region for the processing of speech so that it can be understood as language.

  6. Auditosensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditosensory_cortex

    The impulse propagates across the auditosensory area, the auditopsychic area and eventually the entire temporal lobe. Therefore, this allows the formation of memory and comprehension of sound to take place. The posterior auditopsychic region has a site especially for an understanding of speech called the Wernicke's area (Brodmann area 22).

  7. Angular gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_gyrus

    It represents the Brodmann area 39. [1] Its significance is in transferring visual information to Wernicke's area, in order to make meaning out of visually perceived words. [2] It is also involved in a number of processes related to language, number processing and spatial cognition, memory retrieval, attention, and theory of mind.

  8. Brodmann areas 41 and 42 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_areas_41_and_42

    Brodmann areas 41 and 42 are parts of the primary auditory cortex.. Brodmann area 41 is also known as the anterior transverse temporal area 41 (H). It is a cytoarchitectonic division of the cerebral cortex occupying the anterior transverse temporal gyrus (H) in the bank of the lateral sulcus on the dorsal surface of the temporal lobe.

  9. Arcuate fasciculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcuate_fasciculus

    In neuroanatomy, the arcuate fasciculus (AF; from Latin 'curved bundle') is a bundle of axons that generally connects Broca's area and Wernicke's area in the brain. It is an association fiber tract connecting caudal temporal lobe and inferior frontal lobe. [1]
