Brain Regions Activated Only in Sentence Processing
|
generic
|
When activations observed for sequence processing are subtracted from those obtained for sentence processing, different brain regions specifically implicated in sentence comprehension are identified compared to sequence processing. These regions mainly included bilateral middle temporal gyrus (BA 21) in the medial/anterior portion of the temporal cortex and the left inferior and middle temporal gyrus (BA 21/22) in the posterior portion of the left temporal cortex, Wernicke's area.
