Tancred 2005 Brodmann's areas are cytocarchitecturally distinct regions of the cerebral cortex. Regional variations in the number, thickness and composition of the laminae of the cerebral cortex promted Brodmann in 1909 to devise a scheme which divides the cerebral cortex into 52 regions on the basis of cytoarchitecture. This scheme is still in use, the individual regions being referred to a Brodmann's areas. While it is not necessary to remember the location of each of these 42 areas, some of them should be learned: The primary somatosensory area occupies Brodmann's areas 1, 2 and 3. The primary visual area occupies area 17 The primary auditory area occupies area 41 The primary motor area occupies area 4 The premotor areas occupies area 6 The motor speech (Broca's) area occupies areas 44 and 45
