A Brodmann area is a region of the cerebral cortex, in the human or other primate brain, defined by its cytoarchitecture, or histological structure and organization of cells. The concept was first introduced by the German anatomist Korbinian Brodmann in the early 20th century.

Brodmann areas 3, 1, and 2 make up the primary somatosensory cortex of the human brain (or S1). [2] Because Brodmann sliced the brain somewhat obliquely, he encountered area 1 first; however, from anterior to posterior , the Brodmann designations are 3, 1, and 2, respectively.
Korbinian Brodmann worked on the brains of diverse mammalian species and developed a division of the cerebral cortex into 52 discrete areas (of which 44 in the human, and the remaining 8 in the non-human primate brain). [7] [8] Brodmann used numbers to categorize the different architectural areas, now referred to as a Brodmann Area, [2] and he ...
Brodmann area 46, or BA46, is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain.It is between BA10 and BA45.. BA46 is known as middle frontal area 46.In the human brain it occupies approximately the middle third of the middle frontal gyrus and the most rostral portion of the inferior frontal gyrus.
Brodmann Area 14 is one of Brodmann's subdivisions of the cerebral cortex in the brain.It was defined by Brodmann in the guenon monkey [1].While Brodmann, writing in 1909, argued that no equivalent structure existed in humans, later work demonstrated that area 14 has a clear homologue in the human ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
Brodmann postulated that areas with different structures performed different functions. [5] Indeed, some of these areas were later associated to nervous functions, such as the following: Brodmann area 41 and 42 in the temporal lobe, related to hearing; Brodmann area 45 and 44 overlap with the Broca's area for language in humans; Brodmann area 1 ...
Brodmann area 45 (BA45), is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain.It is situated on the lateral surface, inferior to BA9 and adjacent to BA46.. This area in humans occupies the triangular part of inferior frontal gyrus (H) and, surrounding the anterior horizontal limb of the lateral sulcus (H), a portion of the orbital part of the inferior frontal gyrus (H).
