Structures are shaded according to superstructure: dark gray shading = cingula and cingulate gyrus; light gray shading = orbitofrontal cortex. ACT = anterior cingulotomy; BA = Brodmann area; CMA = Center for Morphometric Analysis structural atlas; JHU = Johns Hopkins University white-matter tractography atlas; LL = limbic leucotomy; OFC = orbitofrontal cortex; + = 5%–10% overlap; + + = >10%–25% overlap, + + + = >25%–50% overlap; + + + + = >50%–100% overlap.
