  2. Brodmann area 22 - Wikipedia

    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.

  3. Wernicke's area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernicke's_area

    It is traditionally thought to reside in Brodmann area 22, located in the superior temporal gyrus in the dominant cerebral hemisphere, which is the left hemisphere in about 95% of right-handed individuals and 70% of left-handed individuals. [1] Damage caused to Wernicke's area results in receptive, fluent aphasia. This means that the person ...

  4. 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.

  5. Auditory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_cortex

    BA41(red) and BA42(green) are auditory cortex. BA22(yellow) is Brodmann area 22, HF(blue) is hippocampal formation and pSTG is posterior part of superior temporal gyrus. The auditory cortex is the part of the temporal lobe that processes auditory information in humans and many other vertebrates.

  6. Brodmann area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area

    Higher order functions of the association cortical areas are also consistently localized to the same Brodmann areas by neurophysiological, functional imaging, and other methods (e.g., the consistent localization of Broca's speech and language area to the left Brodmann areas 44 and 45).

  7. Brodmann area 40 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_40

    It is bounded caudally by the angular area 39 (H), rostrally and dorsally by the caudal postcentral area 2, and ventrally by the subcentral area 43 and the superior temporal area 22 (Brodmann-1909). Cytoarchitectonically defined subregions of rostral BA40/the supramarginal gyrus are PF, PFcm, PFm, PFop, and PFt. Area PF is the homologue to ...

  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]
