Brodmann’s areas
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.
Based on the universally used brain map created by Korbinian Brodmann to define the structures in the cerebral cortex.
Area 7 – Somatosensory Association Cortex
Area 11 – Orbitofrontal area (orbital and rectus gyri, plus part of the rostral part of the superior frontal gyrus)
Area 12 – Orbitofrontal area (used to be part of BA11, refers to the area between the superior frontal gyrus and the inferior rostral sulcus)
Area 13 and Area 14* – Insular cortex
Area 15 – Anterior Temporal Lobe
Area 18 – Secondary visual cortex (V2)
Area 19 – Associative visual cortex (V3)
Area 20 – Inferior temporal gyrus
Area 21 – Middle temporal gyrus
Area 22 – Superior temporal gyrus, of which the caudal part is usually considered to contain the Wernicke’s area
Area 23 – Ventral Posterior cingulate cortex
Area 24 – Ventral Anterior cingulate cortex.
Area 25 – see subcallosal cingulate cortex. Subgenual cortex (part of the Ventromedial prefontal cortex)
Area 26 – Ectosplenial portion of the retrosplenial region of the cerebral cortex
Area 27 – Piriform cortex
Area 28 – Posterior Entorhinal Cortex
Area 29 – Retrosplenial cingulate cortex
Area 30 – Part of cingulate cortex
Area 31 – Dorsal Posterior cingulate cortex
Area 32 – Dorsal anterior cingulate cortex
Area 33 – Part of anterior cingulate cortex
Area 34 – Anterior Entorhinal Cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
Area 35 – Perirhinal cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
Area 36 – Parahippocampal cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
Area 37 – Fusiform gyrus
Area 38 – Temporopolar area (most rostral part of the superior and middle temporal gyri)
Area 43 – Primary gustatory cortex
Area 45 – pars triangularis Broca’s area
Area 46 – Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
Area 47 – Inferior prefontal gyrus
Area 48 – Retrosubicular area (a small part of the medial surface of the temporal lobe)
Area 49 – Parasubiculum area in a rodent
Area 52 – Parainsular area (at the junction of the temporal lobe and the insula)
