the basic language network is divided into which four areas?
brocas, wernickes, primary auditory cortex, and inferior parietal lobule
location, function, and blood supply of brocas
inferior frontal gyrus, motor written and speech fluency, MCA
location, function, and blood supply of wernickes
temporo-parietal junction, comprehension of written and spoken language, MCA
location, function, and blood supply of primary auditory cortex
transverse gyrus of heschl, sends speech signals to wernickes, MCA,
location, function, and blood supply of inferior parietal lobule
above transverse gyrus of heschl, language association receive speech codes and visual association sending it to brocas via arcuate fasciculus, MCA
