Dear All,

I am new to freesurfer and would appreciate your help with the following 
questions.

I tried to look through the previous posts but couldn’t find the answers to all 
my questions.

Thank you in advance.

Best,

Banu


My question:

I wanted to look at certain language related regions in the brain such as 
Heschl’s gyrus, Wernicke’s area, and planum temporale.

I am looking at the lh.aparc.stats file right now. I see that there is a label 
for superior temporal gyrus which would involve all these three regions.

I was wondering if Heschl’s gyrus, Wernicke’s area, and planum temporale are 
also segmented and labelled separately.

In the previous posts, I saw that anterior portion of transverse temporal 
corresponds to Heschl’s gyrus, and under lh.aparc.stats file it is labelled as 
transversetemporal.

I am still not sure about planum temporale and Wernicke’s areas though. I saw 
planum temporale in the lh.aparc.a2009s.stats file (it is called 
G_temp_sup-Plan-tempo, if I am correct). However, I am not sure if it is a good 
idea getting values from two different stat files (planum temporale from this 
one, and the rest from the other). Also, could you tell me if Wernicke’s area 
is segmented, and if so how is it labelled?
