Abstract
There are a lot of motor related areas in cerebral cortex. This paper describes the premotor area (PM) and supplementary motor area (SMA). These areas belong in area 6 of Brodmann's areas and they are very important for preparation and planning of movement, although each of them has an independent function. We hope this article will help you to understand those functions and your clinical treatment.
