Stereotactic coordinates (x, y, z) in the Montreal Neurological Institute space are shown for 14 syntax-related regions, functionally determined in our previous study (Kinno et al. 2014). All but two regions were within the gray matter; the right LPMC and left AG were on the border of the gray matter.
AG angular gyrus, BA Brodmann’s area, F3O orbital part of the inferior frontal gyrus, F3op/F3t opercular/triangular parts of the inferior frontal gyrus, F3t triangular part of the inferior frontal gyrus, IPS intraparietal sulcus, L left, LG lingual gyrus, LPMC lateral premotor cortex, M medial, pMTG/ITG posterior middle/inferior temporal gyri, pre-SMA pre-supplementary motor area, pSTG/MTG posterior superior/middle temporal gyri, R right.
